Thanks for the info. Is there a way to match the collations and make it work?

A bit of experimentation says that jsonb -> integer can be pushed down,
but not any of the variants involving a text fieldname or result.
Presumably this is because of the heuristic that says not to push down
a collation that didn't arise from the remote column. jsonb -> text
isn't really collation-sensitive, of course, but postgres_fdw has no
good way to know that, since the core code (outside of that operator
itself) doesn't know it either. The assumption is that any function
with at least one input of a collatable type is collation-sensitive.
Here you're getting a default collation from the text literal, and
postgres_fdw doesn't want to assume that the remote end would choose
the same collation.
