US President Donald Trump says he aims to create an immigration system that would favour people with high-level skills, degrees and job offers
Trump says his plan aims to create a"fair, modern and lawful system of immigration for the United States."
US President Donald Trump is laying out a new immigration plan in an effort to convince the public and lawmakers that the US legal migration system needs to be overhauled. Trump says right now the US immigration laws "discriminate against genius" and "discriminate against brilliance" because most of the green cards are given to low-skilled people who would make low wages.But far more would go to exceptional students, professionals and people with high-level and vocational degrees. Factors such as age, English language ability and employment offers would also be considered.
