HR 6937 United States House · 119th Congress

End H-1B Now Act

This bill would gradually phase out the H-1B visa program, reducing annual caps from 10,000 in fiscal year 2026 to zero by 2035. It eliminates H-1B eligibility for fashion models, requires applicants to maintain foreign residence, and restricts specialty occupation visas to only physicians, surgeons, and nurses. Additionally, the bill prohibits Medicare funding for medical residency programs training foreign nationals. These changes directly affect foreign workers seeking H-1B visas, employers who sponsor them, and healthcare training programs receiving federal funding.
