This is more than double of the current H-1B minimum wage of $60,000 which was established in 1989 and since then has remained unchanged.


They should have multiplied the $60,000 base minimum to the inflation rate.

FWIW, in 1989 $60,000 is worth $116,132.42 in 2016.

Seriously. I hate static dollar amounts in legislation.
