Microsoft President Brad Smith has expressed concern that recent U.S. government moves to restrict access to green cards for qualified foreign workers could harm the competitiveness of the U.S. tech industry and drive talent abroad. Smith rejected claims by U.S. officials that Microsoft had abused the H-1B visa program, stating that the company uses the same pay system for all employees regardless of their immigration status. He also noted that Microsoft hired over 9,000 U.S.-born workers last year.
