Finally Trump Implemented His Decision

President Trump on April 22 signed an order to temporarily block some foreigners from permanent residence in the US, saying he was doing so to protect American workers during the coronavirus pandemic.

The order is to last for 60 days and then will be reviewed and possibly extended.

U.S. President Donald Trump signs immigration order curbing green cards crisis to implement a long-sought policy goal of barring more immigrants ahead of the November 3 election.

This will ensure that unemployed Americans of all backgrounds will be first in line for jobs as our economy reopens,” Mr. Trump said at his daily news conference about the coronavirus at the White House. He also said it will“preserve our healthcare resources for American patients” afflicted by the COVID-19.

Mr. Trump won the White House in 2016 in part on a promise to crack down on immigration and has made the issue central to his presidency. But many of his major moves trying to curb immigration have been challenged in court and legal experts said this executive order could also face lawsuits.

One U.S. Department of Homeland Security official who requested anonymity said the order would only apply to people applying for permanent residence from outside the US, not those already in the country seeking to adjust their status.
