US labor dept hints at 'total shutdown' of H-1B visa program
Anthony D'Esposito, Inspector General at the Department of Labor, announced an investigation into the H-1B visa program. Investigators are focusing on fraud related to foreign labor, which may lead to significant reforms. D'Esposito indicated that the program could look very different in one year.
