JD Vance Issues H1-B Visa Warning
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Vice President JD Vance launched a withering critique of Microsoft on Wednesday, accusing the tech giant of letting go of American workers while relying heavily on immigrant labor through the H-1B visa program. Speaking at a bipartisan event co-hosted by the Hill and Valley Forum, Vance questioned the ethics and economic logic behind mass layoffs followed by increased applications for employment-based visas. "You see some big tech companies where they'll lay off 9,000 workers, and then they'll apply for a bunch of overseas visas. And I sort of wonder; that doesn't totally make sense to me. "That displacement and that math worries me a bit. And what the president has said, he said very clearly: We want the very best and the brightest to make America their home. We want them to build great companies and so forth. But I don't want companies to fire 9,000 American workers and then to go and say, 'We can't find workers here in America.' That's a bullshit story." Newsweek has contacted Microsoft for comment via email outside office hours. Vice President JD Vance speaks at Don's Machine Shop in West Pittston, Pennsylvania, on July 16, 2025. Vice President JD Vance speaks at Don's Machine Shop in West Pittston, Pennsylvania, on July 16, 2025. Matt Rourke/AP Why It Matters The vice president's comments come amid growing scrutiny of the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. companies to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. Sectors like technology, finance and academia are the primary beneficiaries. In 2024, leading firms such as Amazon, Google, Meta and Tesla secured thousands of H-1B approvals. Microsoft also received a significant number of approvals despite ongoing rounds of layoffs. The H1B visa program has emerged as a political flashpoint within the Republican Party, exposing a rift between populist conservatives aligned with the MAGA movement, who argue the visas displace American workers, and pro-business factions, including Big Tech executives, who support Donald Trump but rely on the program to fill critical talent gaps. As pressure mounts on companies like Microsoft, the debate highlights growing tension over the future of high-skilled immigration in the U.S. economy. What To Know Vance's critique marks a shift in tone from the White House, signaling a more restrained and skeptical approach to employment-based immigration compared with previous years. President Donald Trump has previously backed employment-based visas like H-1B. The H-1B program is currently capped at 65,000 new visas per year, with an additional 20,000 slots reserved for individuals holding advanced degrees from U.S. institutions. Critics argue that the cap is outdated and fails to reflect the demands of the modern workforce. Others, however, claim the program is ripe for abuse. The political right remains divided over the issue. MAGA-aligned conservatives oppose the program over concerns about job losses and corporate exploitation. Meanwhile, moderate Republicans argue the visas are essential for filling talent shortages in highly technical fields. Doug Rand, a senior official at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) under the Biden administration, told Newsweek that lawmakers on Capitol Hill should raise the cap. Microsoft is facing mounting scrutiny over its use of the H-1B visa program after announcing a wave of layoffs in July that will impact approximately 9,000 employees globally. The latest cuts, affecting about 4 percent of the company's total workforce, follow two earlier rounds in May and June, which together eliminated around 8,000 positions. In total, Microsoft has laid off nearly 16,000 employees so far this year, out of its global headcount of 228,000. In the aftermath of the layoffs, social media posts began circulating on X, formerly Twitter, alleging that Microsoft has submitted applications for more than 6,000 H-1B visas since October, the start of the current fiscal year. While that specific figure has not been independently verified, official data shows that Microsoft filed 9,491 H-1B applications during the previous fiscal year, all of which were approved. The timing of the layoffs and visa activity has raised questions from the right, who are calling for greater transparency and accountability in how tech firms manage both domestic and foreign hiring. Although not the top recipient of H1B visas, Amazon claimed that spot in 2024 with more than 9,200 approvals. Microsoft ranked seventh among the top ten U.S. companies, securing approximately 4,700 approvals, according to data released earlier this year by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). What People Are Saying Doug Rand, a senior official at USCIS during the Biden administration, told Newsweek: "The most important thing that Congress could do is raise the green card caps, so that long-term employers don't have to use the H-1B program in the first place. "As far as executive branch measures that don't require Congress, we addressed a lot of H-1B abuse during the Biden administration by squeezing fraud out of the registration process and issuing a balanced regulation with more enforcement tools."

Global entertainment and media industry revenues to hit US$3.5 trillion by 2029, driven by advertising, live events, and video games: PwC Global Entertainment & Media Outlook
Advertising spend forecasted to grow three times as fast (6.1%) as E&M consumer spending (2%) – as AI set to transform advertising models and drive hyper-personalisation Non-digital categories – such as live music, cinema and events – continues to lead consumer sector revenue, accounting for 61% of sector spending in 2024 Global cinema revenue expected to rise from $33 billion in 2024 to $42 billion in 2029, as international audiences continue to spend more on locally produced films Global video games revenue forecast to grow from $224 billion in 2024 to $300 billion in 2029 – exceeding movie and music industry revenues combined LONDON, July 24, 2025 /CNW/ -- The global entertainment & media (E&M) industry edged towards US$3 trillion in revenue in 2024 and is forecast to hit $3.5 trillion in 2029 as advertising spend surges across platforms, according to PwC's Global Entertainment & Media Outlook 2025-29, released today. The E&M industry is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.7% until 2029 – a rate above the projected global economic growth average, but below pre-pandemic highs. Economic uncertainty and anaemic consumer spending growth, amid heightened domestic and international competition in the industry, is expected to weigh on E&M growth rates through the forecast period until 2029. Bart Spiegel, Global Entertainment and Media Leader, PwC US, said: "As the E&M industry continues to be impacted by broader economic uncertainty and constrained consumer spending, advertising is emerging as the leading powerhouse of the global entertainment and media industry's revenues – a transformation expected to continue as AI transforms delivery models, democratises content production, serves highly curated content experiences, and reduces barriers to entry. The E&M industry has always been at the forefront of technological innovation, but companies will need to remain nimble and proactive to embrace the future and satisfy consumers in an ecosystem that rewards creativity and tailored content." Advertising to serve as industry engine for revenue growth as AI transforms advertising models As growth for paid or subscription products slows amid heightened industry competition and constrained consumer spending – particularly in mature markets – advertising is forecast to represent a significant driver of revenue growth for the E&M industry at-large. Of the three major E&M categories analysed (connectivity, advertising, consumer), advertising is expected to grow fastest – three times as fast (6.1% CAGR) as the consumer category (2%). The fastest growing E&M revenue metrics over the next five years are all advertising driven – including retail advertising (15%), social and mobile on-stream video advertising (15%), and connected TV in-stream internet advertising (14%). Digital formats, which account for 72% of overall ad revenue in 2024, will rise to 80% in 2029, with new technologies including AI and hyper-personalisation expected to drive this even further. High growth areas include retail search advertising in e-shopping (rising from 32.7% in 2020 to 45.5% in 2029) and advertising in video games (rising from 32.8% in 2024 to 38.5% in 2029). AI is impacting the E&M industry in many ways. One of the areas in which it is likely to influence revenue growth is in connected TV (any television that connects to the internet to stream video content). In 2020, connected TV advertising revenue equated to just 5.9% of total traditional broadcast TV advertising. In 2024, this figure had jumped to 22%. But with the rise of digital engagement and the prospect of AI-assisted hyper-personalisation, which may lead to greater end-user uptake, connected TV ad revenues will rise to $51 billion in 2029 – equal to 45% of traditional broadcast TV advertising. For now, connectivity remains the largest category, with spending reaching $1.3 trillion in 2029, growing at CAGR of 2.8% and driven mainly by mobile internet service revenue. However, advertising's pronounced growth rates are set to see the gulf between connectivity and advertising spend rapidly narrow by 2029. Non-digital revenue – including live music, events and cinema box office – lead consumer spending Consumers may spend more of their free time online, but they continue to spend more of their entertainment budget offline. In 2024, non-digital formats accounted for 61% of consumer revenue – a level of spend expected to broadly continue through the forecast period. While global cinema box office spending is expected to rise from $33 billion in 2024 to $41.5 billion in 2029, consumers' preferences are continuing to shift toward locally produced films. Globally, the top five US studios' market share has dropped from over 60% before the pandemic to 51% in 2024. Video gaming remains an industry bright spot The global video gaming industry continues to be an engine of E&M growth, with the global video games market exceeding the movie and music industry combined. Total revenues were $224 billion in 2024, with the industry expected to grow to nearly $300 billion in 2029 at a CAGR of 5.7%. Developing markets continue to lead E&M industry growth rates Excluding connectivity revenues (e.g., mobile service subscriptions), the US comfortably leads as the world's largest E&M market by revenue. It is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% until 2029 – lagging below the global average of 4.2%. Looking elsewhere, E&M revenues in China – the second largest market – will rise at a CAGR of 6.1%, powered primarily by its internet advertising segment, with a CAGR or 8.9%. The fastest growing markets globally continue to be in developing markets, including India and Indonesia, all with CAGRs above 7.5%. In India, much of the growth will stem from internet advertising – which is growing at a CAGR of 15.9% – driven by expanding internet penetration, rising 5G connectivity, and the popularity of social media and short-form video content. Wilson Chow, Global Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) Leader, PwC China, said: "Consumers have never had as numerous or diverse choices of entertainment services on offer, but this competition, paired with economic uncertainty and rising costs, is seeing consumer spend growth stagnate. If entertainment and media businesses are to capture new audiences and generate growth, they must be thinking about the connected ecosystems in which they operate, leveraging the power of advertising and AI, the combination of which is allowing for far more cost-effective and personalised content creation and engagement models."
