Donald Trump has proposed that all foreign graduates of U.S. colleges, even junior college graduates, should get a green card.
Remember when Mitt Romney made the same suggestion?
Trump needs to retract the proposal immediately.
From Politico:
Former President Donald Trump suggested on Thursday [June 20] that foreign students who graduate from college in the United States should receive a green card so they can stay in the country. “You graduate from a college, I think you should get automatically as part of your diploma a green card to be able to stay in this country, and that includes junior colleges too,” Trump said in an episode on the All-In podcast, which is hosted by several venture capitalists. He floated the idea after being asked by a host if he would promise to “give us ability to import the best and brightest around the world to America.” [Trump floats idea to give foreign graduates in the U.S. a green card, by Kierra Frazier, Politico, June 20, 2024]
This proposal should be shouted down immediately. Trump needs to stick to proposals that are good for the country and his campaign, not bad ideas like this.
