'Our message to Microsoft is...': Vance's big claim
US Vice President JD Vance accused Microsoft of fraud regarding its use of the H-1B visa program, claiming the company replaced laid-off American workers with foreign workers. He stated Microsoft laid off 6,000 American employees while benefiting from 6,300 H-1B visas. Vance emphasized the need for Microsoft to prioritize hiring American workers instead of foreign laborers.
