As the US continues to grapple with the complexities of immigration and border control, a new front in the fight against alleged wrongdoing has emerged. Team Trump's anti-fraud campaigns, a hallmark of the former president's administration, are now shifting their focus to work-visa abuse, a phenomenon that has long been a concern for lawmakers and immigration experts.
