Cutting Legal Immigration

8/4/2017

 
New immigration changes proposed by President Trump will limit legal immigration into the U.S. to highly-skilled, English speaking immigrants. Changes to the job-based visas will also take place.

The Bill is sponsored by Senators Perdue of Georgia and Cotton of Arkansas.

This Bill would be a skilled points system cutting back on immigration based on family and pushed on skills. It would eliminate the international diversity visa lottery and limit the number of annual refugee admission.

​The RAISE Act (Reforming American Immigration for a Strong Economy Act), is a revised version of the Bill I shared with you earlier this year.

This Bill will face a fight in Congress.  Stay tuned.

As always in our motto,
