US visa validity works differently than in most other countries.

In the US, the visa validity dates are the dates in which you may travel to a port of entry to enter the country. Your duration of stay may extend beyond the visa expiration, up to the limits for your visa type.

At the time you enter, the border guard will stamp or write in your passport with the date that you must depart the country. Be sure to check that this date is correct before you leave the border checkpoint.
