Team Trump’s anti-fraud campaigns are setting their sights on work-visa abuse — and not a moment too soon.
Wednesday, Vice President JD Vance and Labor Department Inspector General Anthony D’Esposito announced the launch of “a major investigation” meant to “combat fraud and human trafficking” in the H-1B visa program.
Labor officials have already fired off dozens of subpoenas as part of the probe.
D’Esposito told The Post that countless H-1B visas, which let employers hire highly skilled foreigners for positions they can’t fill with US citizens, have gone to fraudsters who’ve scammed “hundreds of millions” of dollars from the medical industry alone.
Team Trump’s focus on government-related grift — a follow up on Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency efforts — has been targeting billions in health-care fraud.
