Did you even read your own article? It says "up to" 80 visas will be issued under the program.
Nothing to see here, move along.
Would help to read it to get the point
These 80 H1bs who would qualify for the H-1B visa will be outside the annual cap of 85,000 H-1B visas issued by the DHS, which now has a lottery system in place. Last year, 233,000 people applied for H-1B visa; with only around 1/3rd of applicants finally getting it. This year, more applications than ever before are expected when filing begins April 1.
H1b started in 1990 with one type of visa and has exploded into 50 types and thousands of pages of law
This is the latest abuse In which if you give h1b to student there is NO limit
