Editorialized title.
The tweet relates to one person's experience, and some rumors, as specified in the tweet: "...rumors around the #ExecutiveOrder banning #H1B holders from re-entry"
My reading of the series of tweets suggests they were denied based on existing COVID-19 travel restrictions. I'm unaware if holding an h-1b is a pass to allow you to bypass those restrictions.

Yes, CBP classifies “work” as one of the reasons for essential travel. Work visa holders should be permitted to enter the country if it’s not for tourism.
