The OPT (Optional Practical Training) program allows foreign students, particularly from India, to stay in the U.S. after graduation for work experience, with many transitioning to H-1B visas. MAGA nativists push to eliminate OPT, arguing it displaces U.S. workers. If abolished, U.S. universities could lose financial and academic benefits, and foreign students may seek education elsewhere. The debate over OPT’s future could have significant implications for U.S. higher education and the economy.
