Proposed Department of Labor wage rule on H-1B and greencard sponsorship (EB-2 and EB-3) could shake up hospital hiring

https://www.axios.com/2026/05/28/trump-wage-rule-health-jobs The Department of Labor (DOL)'s Employment and Training Administration proposes a rule that would adjust wage rules such that employers pay H-1B, EB-2, and EB-3 (PERM) workers similarly to domestic workers. Implementation would lift the average minimum wage requirement to about $14,000/year. While geared for Big Tech and major visa abusers, the intervention could have negative effects on healthcare and patient access. This intervention could unintentionally strangle money-strapped health employers, especially in rural areas, dependent on foreign physicians, nurses, and other staff. submitted by /u/ddx-me [link] [comments]
