Thanks for the detailed overview of the process .. I've been trying to talk sense into my crazy right-wing uncle on FB about how difficult it is already to immigrate to the USA. By focusing on immigration, Stephen Miller's favorite subject, Trump can basically just repeat talking points all the time. Its a non-issue floated out due to anti-Muslim hysteria which allows this administration to pretend to care about something, all the while ignoring real crises like opioid addiction, failing infrastructure, healthcare reform or education etc etc campaign finance anybody .. the USA is on a slippery slope and worrying about immigrants is really only empowering ICE and the police/surveillance state ...
