Prohibits state colleges and universities from employing individuals or engaging contractors who hold H-1B nonimmigrant status

SB 1130 prohibits Missouri state colleges and universities from employing individuals with H-1B visas or contracting with businesses that employ H-1B visa holders. The bill directly affects public institutions of higher education in Missouri and their hiring practices, banning both direct employment of H-1B workers and contracts with firms using such workers. Key provisions require institutions to cease all H-1B-related employment or contracting, with implementation overseen by the Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development. The law explicitly defines "H-1B visa" as U.S. foreign worker permits for specialty occupations and "state college or university" as Missouri public colleges and universities.
