What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Gavin Newsom criticized Donald Trump's restrictions on legal immigration, warning that closing pathways for foreign talent would undermine the American economy. The Labour Department suspended several technology and IT outsourcing companies from the Permanent Labour Certification Program (PERM). These suspended firms include Cognizant, Infosys, Tata, Wipro, HCL, and Capgemini. Additionally, Microsoft and Adobe were suspended due to multiple active federal investigations.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The suspensions relate to the companies having requested nearly three million foreign workers since 2009 and receiving over 100,000 permanent labour certifications. The administration defended the measures by characterizing these approvals as jobs taken from American workers. This regulatory action directly impacts the ability of these firms to hire foreign talent through the PERM program.
