Visa Shift After GOP Loss
No immediate breakthrough on visas or immigration and citizenship cases is expected after the Democrats’ victory. The new Congress will not be sworn in until January 3, and the agencies concerned will continue processing applications under the current rules. Democrats can use their control of Congress to shape legislation, hold officials accountable, and confirm appointments, but changing executive policies requires legislative action and the president’s approval—or a two-thirds majority to override a veto. One near-term deadline is the expiration of temporary funding for the Department of Homeland Security and immigration services on December 11. A federal court has also struck down a policy imposing a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa applications.
