I was going to say this too; a rare one of Trump’s policies that seems workable.

There’s supposed to be a rule where H1B permits first require the company to exhaust national hires; but they do this by simply inventing qualifications no one can fill. I don’t know how you can fix that part, but a price tag is good friction.

Still, this leads to trouble for the industries where we really don’t have any local talent. I want to say the federal government could approve exemptions ad hoc, but I doubt anyone would trust them to control that.
