Every. Damn. Friday.

A fee on asylum (for the first time in history), increase in naturalization fees to >$1,000, >50% increase in DACA renewal fees (as they try to kill DACA), and lots of other awful stuff.
Does anyone with business immigration expertise have a sense of what the impact this change would be?

USCIS proposes "to limit petitions for nonimmigrant workers to 25 named beneficiaries."
This is, to be clear, BS.

DHS tries to wash its hands of the fact that any fee they establish for asylum applications *automatically applies to immigration court* by saying that's EOIR's problem. They don't calculate any costs or even consider the effects.
There are some massive increases in fees in the rarer forms, including a 559% increase ($230 to $1,515) for Form I-929, Petition for Qualifying Family Member of a U-1 Nonimmigrant, and a 532% increase ($285/$570 to $1800) in form I-881, for NACARA special rule cancellation.
