There is some anxiety over regional banks from Marketplace. I'm Sabri Beneshore in for David Brancaccio.

Global stocks took a hit today. There was read across the board from New York to Japan for a little while there as investors have started to worry about the health of regional banks in the U.S.

of the Immigration and Nationality Act that governed

the H-1B program, including the requirement that fees be based on the costs incurred by the

government in processing visas. The BBC's North America technology correspondent, Lili Jemali,

has more. The Chamber of Commerce represents millions of American companies, and we knew that within the

tech industry, there was quite a bit of consternation about this move.
