Trump's $100,000 H-1B Visa Fee Battle Escalates to Appeals Court

• US Chamber of Commerce appeals federal court's decision upholding Trump's $100,000 H-1B visa application fee.
• The fee, imposed by President Trump, aims to significantly increase the cost of H-1B visas, widely used by American tech companies.
• A federal judge on Dec. 23 ruled the fee lawful, rejecting the Chamber's argument that it overrides federal immigration law.
• The Chamber contends the fee exceeds the President's authority and would cause major disruptions to the US economy.
• The escalating legal dispute over the H-1B visa program is expected to ultimately reach the US Supreme Court.
