A federal judge struck down the Trump administration's $100,000 fee for H-1B visa applications, removing a major cost burden for US technology companies that depend on skilled foreign labor. The ruling is a meaningful reprieve for staffing and hiring plans in the tech sector, though it does not change underlying visa policy. The decision is positive for affected employers and may modestly support sentiment across large-cap technology names.
