Found out today the science nonprofit I work for would have to pay $100000 _per person_, _per year_ to hire anyone with a work visa. Which we obviously cannot afford. It also means a third of my team (software engineering) will be gone in two years when their visas expire. These are all people who went to grad school here and have built lives here, and I've worked with them for several years.

Completely senseless to upend their lives for no good reason. It's rediculous such a change of policy is even legal.

Update: apparently people who go to school in the U.S. are exempted. That's nice for them, and means we can still retain some people, but my comment above still stands.
