What it does
The End H-1B Now Act would phase out the H-1B visa program by gradually reducing the annual cap from 10,000 in fiscal year 2026 to zero by fiscal year 2035, effectively eliminating the program for most foreign workers in specialty occupations. It would also restrict H-1B eligibility during the phase-out to only physicians, surgeons, and nurses, while removing fashion models and dual intent provisions from the visa category. Additionally, the bill would bar Medicare funding for residency programs that train non-citizen aliens in the United States.
