Yes, also this new executive order doesn't seem to have been well thought through. May be it was rushed. At around ~120k, median salary doesn't seem to suggest they are "cheap" labor. If the administration thought that was lower salary, then they should have rather raised the minimum salary to a higher number. Yet to see comments from top companies / recruiters. Not sure if there are active discussions ongoing with the administration on this. Either way, unstable policies that impact businesses are not good in the long run. Even if this executive order were to be withdrawn or impact reduced, companies will realize this risk and plan their future actions accordingly.
