Blue city emerges as 'suspected hotspot' of visa fraud as swing state lawmaker demands answers

Blue city emerges as 'suspected hotspot' of visa fraud as swing state lawmaker demands answers

What happened: Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., is asking the Trump administration to investigate alleged H-1B visa fraud in Georgia's 7th Congressional District, which he calls a "suspected hotspot." Key numbers: Georgia's 7th District includes part of the Atlanta metro area and Fulton County. Why it matters: McCormick says the alleged fraud undercuts wages and increases competition for American workers, especially new college graduates. H-1B visas are debated on the right, with JD Vance calling the system "broken" while Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy defend it.
