Published: 10/21/2025

Walmart halts job offers for H-1B visa candidates in response to new fees imposed by the Trump administration. The retail giant, the top user of H-1B visas in the retail sector, is pausing these hirings, affecting over 2,000 approved visas. The move comes as part of a broader debate on the impact of H-1B visas on the American workforce, with supporters citing the need to attract global talent while critics allege it undercuts local workers.
