Share to twitterDonald Trump speaking about his new immigration plan in the Rose Garden of the White House on May 16, 2019. It may be best to ignore the politics and rhetoric around the Trump administration’s new immigration plan and focus on its most relevant part: Under the proposal, more than 4 million people waiting in family and employment-based green card backlogs would have their immigration applications eliminated, even if they have been waiting in line for years to immigrate.
The plan is expected to be transformed into legislative language and introduced in Congress, which means it is possible changes could be made. The elimination of nearly all family immigration categories, as well as preventing those waiting in backlogs from immigrating, virtually assures Democrats will oppose the proposal.
The half million or more individuals waiting in employment-based immigrant backlogs must hope to achieve enough points or will eventually need to leave the country.
Awesome
We don’t want liabilities. We want assists. Simple
That is the point ... an attack against the inevitable browning of America.

Trump immigration plan includes civics tests for legal entrants, border security boostIn addition to mandated checks like a health screening and background check, immigrants would be required to pass a civics test. They would then receive points based on age, English proficiency, offer of employment and education levels. What about Daca? This points system is obviously a Trump family fantasy. Did Trump just say applicants for citizenship must pass a physics exam It's dead on arrival to Congress because the Democrats don't care about it. They want the illegals here so that they can vote. They are sealing their own fate for the 2020 election. Trump will be re-elected.

Trump will pitch immigration plan already facing stiff opposition in CongressPresident Trump will unveil a plan Thursday to add border security and foreign workers and reduce family ties, but not a bill with bipartisan support. In other words the same crap he’s been pushing - nothing new and no specifics - short simple phrases for his base. Goodness - if it were the exact same plan and was announced by Obama, the LAT's would be shrilling support for it. Sounds like more family separation

We want to protect the low paid worker from workers willing to do the work we are unwilling to do. Not so for the jobs people want. Cool. When is Melanie leaving

Trump to propose plan to make U.S. immigration more merit-basedTrump's immigration proposal, the product largely of senior advisers Jared Kushner and Stephen Miller and economic aide Kevin Hassett, is an effort to rally Republicans on an issue that has often divided them. While its chances of approval by Congress seem distant, the plan will give Republicans It's a great plan. How could anyone justify chain migration or a random lottery in opposition to this? The media loves to portray Trump and his supporters as anti-immigration, when in reality, they just want to make sure good people are coming into the country.
