Chipmaker Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang said that the company will continue to sponsor H-1B visas and cover all associated costs following U.S. President Donald Trump's executive order last month that imposed a $100,000 fee on each new application, Business Insider reported on Tuesday.

Huang's reported message, aimed at reassuring employees, comes after panic and confusion had ensued among tech workers on H-1B visas, a large chunk of whom are from India and China.

Akin to the wider chip and tech industry, Nvidia has a significant number of employees from overseas. Huang has repeatedly asserted that about half the AI researchers in the world are Chinese.

"As one of many immigrants at Nvidia, I know that the opportunities we've found in America have profoundly shaped our lives," Huang wrote in a message to staff, cited by Business Insider.

"And the miracle of Nvidia — built by all of you, and by brilliant colleagues around the world — would not be possible without immigration," Huang added, according to the report.

Nvidia declined to comment when contacted by Reuters.

Understandable- you’re Class of 2008, and don’t know much of the history of this place.

Luxuriate in your ignorance.

[kiryandil]

I see - knowing that you’re a freeploader, like mucusminimus, has got your back up at the entirely correct accusation.

[vmpolesov]

Keep ‘em coming. These are threads about USA visa policies, I don’t know why someone keeps bringing Ukraine into it. From now on I’ll just ignore the tenacious troll.

Hey, deadbeat - get your name on the donors list for Quarter 4. It's an easy thing to do.

Interesting how the troll marcus has got you dancing like a puppet on a chain for his newest troll.

I don’t know why someone keeps bringing Ukraine into it.

Because marcus's last troll was The Ukraine and spending our tax dollars on his and Joe Biden's grift.

But of course, a mouth-breather like you couldn't be expected to understand anything deeper than a bumper-sticker slogan like "India Bad!". Chump.

Dance for your xenophobe organ-grinder.

“Nvidia is probably SO busy, the USA market can’t supply enough engineers.”

Nope. Millions of STEM degreed Americans out of work.

Will do. Thanks.
