<p>The U.S. faces a growing demand for skilled workers, particularly in STEM fields with a need for 1 million more STEM workers by 2033. The H-1B visa program, created in 1990, helps fill this gap by allowing businesses to temporarily hire foreign workers in specialized fields, with 85,000 visas available annually.  Tech companies like Amazon, Google, Meta and Microsoft are some of the largest users of the program eager to hire foreign workers. Supporters argue it boosts innovation and creates U.S. jobs, while detractors contend it takes jobs from American workers.</p>

<p>The FBI has issued a warning against “smishing”, which are text-based scams that people all over the country are receiving on their phones. Scammers are impersonating the agencies and companies that collect money for tolls parking tickets, credit card payments, bank notices, phone bills. Some scams are even fake anti-scam warnings. Smishing or text fraud is a new kind of old crime and it is enabled by the rise of smartphones and cashless billing. CNBC talked to toll collectors and crime experts about the rise of this problem, how to know a text is fake, and what to do about it.</p>
