H1B Visas and State Incentives

Summary

The bill adds a new provision to the South Carolina Code that makes any company ineligible for state incentives if more than two percent of its workforce are H‑1B visa holders. It would prevent those firms from receiving tax breaks, grants, contracts or other discretionary benefits. The measure seeks to limit public support for businesses that rely heavily on foreign skilled‑worker visas.
