The H1B visa program is one of the fulcrums of a seesaw that President Donald Trump and Joe Biden are sitting on with a bated breath, while the US Presidential election 2020 is just a month away.<\/strong> The Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden has vowed to strengthen the US-India relations by mitigating the concerns about H1B visa for Indian techies, whereas President Trump is all set to fill in the void of American talent for high-skilled H1B occupations. H1B visa is so integral to the presidential election that it has become a matter of contention between Trump and Biden.<\/p>\n On September 24, the US Department of Labor introduced the H1B One Workforce Grant Program to upskill the American workforce for high-skilled H1B jobs in the days to come. A grant of $150 million will be approved and spent under the H1B One Workforce Grant Program to train the next-gen American workers in key sectors driving the economic growth of the country, including cyber security, information technology, transportation and manufacturing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
