In his last term, Trump paused some work visa programs used by tech firms to hire skilled talent.
This order left many tech workers stranded outside of the US in 2017.
The H-1B visa program is the nation's largest temporary work visa program, with over 600,000 workers across 50,000 employers.
Vice President-elect JD Vance has a venture capital background, and Musk is an immigrant himself who has said he was on an H1-B visa previously.
Shin Yi Chong, who received her H1-B visa in 2019, was recently laid off from her tech job as a product manager.
