Improving Wage Protections for the Temporary and Permanent Employment of Certain Foreign Nationals in the United States
Published Date: 3/27/2026
Proposed Rule
Summary
The Department of Labor wants to make sure foreign workers on certain visas get paid fairly—just like U.S. workers doing the same jobs in the same areas. They’re updating how wages are calculated to stop employers from hiring cheaper foreign workers instead of Americans. These changes could affect employers and workers starting soon and aim to protect wages without slowing down hiring.
