The suit cites the example of “Plaintiff Phoenix Doe,” to land its point. Doe is described as an Indian citizen residing in Northern California. She is a postdoctoral researcher whose cap-exempt H-1B petition has been halted due to the $100,000 fee.

“As a result of the Proclamation, her university has indefinitely paused moving forward with the processing of her application.”

“She is suffering debilitating stress and anxiety due to the uncertainty of her position, which exacerbates the PTSD from which she suffers. Without relief, Plaintiff Phoenix will be forced to leave her postdoctoral position the United States within four months, causing serious professional and personal harm.”

There have been many articles about the H-1B workers and their plight.
No mention about the 700,000+ Americans who lost out on jobs from these people.
