The US government has suspended Microsoft, Adobe, and other major technology firms from the PERM green-card labor program, citing concerns over H-1B visa fraud.

The move signals a tightening of immigration policy for high-skilled workers, which could impact long-term talent acquisition strategies for major tech employers.
