President Donald Trump is expected to suspend H-1B visas for highly skilled workers, among others, until the end of the year, with an order anticipated as soon today, according to NPR.

The order, which would not affect anyone already in the country, could have a significant impact on Bay Area technology companies and IT staffing firms that have long relied on the visas to meet what company advocates say is a critical skilled worker shortage.
