The Trump administration has drawn out a new proposal to reform the legal US immigration system.

According to people familiar with the proposal, the administration wants to among other things end the Diversity Visa Program (Green Card Lottery) make E-Verify mandatory for all employers, and reform the asylum and detention laws to discourage migrants from traveling to the US border to seek refuge in the country.

A source briefed on the proposal told Politico that the administration wants to end the diversity visa lottery, which grants 50,000 permanent resident visas annually to nationals of countries with low immigration rates to the US.

The 50,000 visas to would re-allocated to employment-based applicants, the source told Politico.


The plan would also limit visas given to family member os US residents (which Republicans call rain migration) and re-distribute the visas to more merit-based immigration programs.

More than one million individuals become US permanent residents each year, with only 140,000 doing so through employment.

The rest get permanent residency as relatives of US citizens or permanent resident, as refugees, or through the diversity visa program.

The plan is being pushed by Jared Kushner, senior White House adviser and Trump’s son-in-law. Kushner has reportedly been working on the proposal for months.

The proposal is set to be unveiled in the coming days and sent to Congress, though experts say it faces near-impossible odds of passage as far-right hardliners of immigration say it does not reduce legal immigration, while Democrats have repeatedly said they will not support any immigration reform bill that does not include DACA protection.

All the Trump a#s lickers on Nairaland, how do you like that. I said he doesn't want your kind in his America because that MAHA means Make America Hate Again but you guys are not smart enough to decipher that. For the illegal alien living in Mississippi, E-verify will be your Achilles heel with your expired visa. Good luck doing your minimum wage labor getting paid under the table because I know you don't have a Social Security Number with your expired visa. For the rest of the Orange Pig Amen corner, good luck to you obtaining that visa.

Keep fooling yourself. It was couple years ago that you were talking here on Nairaland about your friend in Mississippi inviting you to come to US and now you have all your papers. You must think you are talking to your kindreds in Nigeria that doesn't know Jack about America. Instead of you to face reality and do what you are suppose to do, here you are making a fool of yourself. Like I said before, I wish you no ill will but karma is a bitch. About your president Trump being a victim of fake news, he doesn't even recognize illegal immigrant like you. Calling me names in your Igbo language means how much of a foool you are because I am very fluent in Yoruba language despite being brought up in Chicago but I won't stoop that low with you. Instead of worrying how to do right In your MS, you are fooling yourself. Keep your idiocy up and the result will not be pleasant for you.
