The United States Chamber of Commerce sued the Trump administration on Thursday over the new $100,000 fee for H-1B visas.

The lawsuit said the fee, which President Donald Trump put in place with an executive order last month, was “unlawful” and that it would harm American businesses.

The lawsuit pits the business association against Trump, who has fashioned himself as a pro-business president.

The White House and the Chamber of Commerce did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.
