Physicist Michio Kaku claimed that the American scientific establishment would collapse without the H-1B visa program, calling it a "secret weapon." Critics, including Professor Norm Matloff, argue that Kaku is shilling for Silicon Valley tech companies that use the program to depress wages for American coders. While Donald Trump has vowed to end the H-1B program, the tech industry continues to lobby for its expansion despite claims of a domestic talent shortage.
