The four pillars, or nothing. That means merit-based immigration. End to chain immigration. Cut legal immigration. E-Verify. No diversity lottery.

It limits visas for extended family members and shifts to a merit-based immigration system. The young Dreamers, who have been living in the United States illegally since childhood, could apply for legal status for six years. Applicants could gain points for education or other skills. Eventually, they could apply for citizenship.

The bill beefs up enforcement of immigration laws and ends the diversity visa lottery for immigrants from underrepresented countries, among other things.

Building “The Wall” will be a senseless, time consuming waste of good money.

(1) Half the illegals in America arrived here legally - as students, as tourists, as temporary workers. They just stay after their visas expire.

(2) From 2008-2016, GOP Congressmen did absolutely nothing when Barack Obama stopped enforcing current immigration laws. Why should anyone believe that the GOP will enforce new immigration laws?

Well we will see but this is what I know currently so we shall see. Waiting on the conservatives and gop is always cloudy as they can’t seem to get their heads squared away sufficient to make things happen without shooting themselves in the foot!

Many of the 23 GOP signers hail from districts with large Hispanic populations when it comes to Daca so it’s easy to see why this is an issue.....they look primarily how they’ll be personally affected politically rather than what is actually good for the country.

Ain’t it the truth....

If we had stronger voter registration laws, they wouldn’t worry about them...

They shouldn’t anyway...They should do what is best for America and Americans...Like Trump...

Re: The Four Pillars

Trump's four pillars do not include E-Verify.

They do not end Chain Migration - they limit it to spouses plus minor children.

And merit-based immigration?

That means merit-based skin color, merit-based non-Christian religion, merit-based gender identity, and merit-based fanatical Left Wing bias.
