President Trump Supports Bill That Would Cut Legal Immigration by Half
The legislation would favor immigrants based on education and job abilities while curtailing those brought into the country through family ties.
Critics said the bill, which would cut legal immigration in half within a decade, would keep out badly needed low-wage workers.

Congratulations to the predisent's supporters! One ancillary part of item seven of the 10 legislative items he promised you in his contract with you is moving towards fulfillment! This is a huge milestone on the road to Make America Great Again.

The contract promised to deliver all this in 100 days, and it is 195 days since inauguration. At this rate, it will take his administration about 10 years and 7 months to just draft all this legislation, much less pass it through Congress.

1. Middle Class Tax Relief and Simplification Act: not drafted yet

2. End the Offshoring Act: not drafted yet, not enough Republican support in Congress

3. American Energy and Infrastructure Act: not drafted yet, not enough Republican support in Congress

4. School Choice and Education Opportunity Act: not drafted yet

5. Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act: failed (the promise was explicitly to "fully repeal Obamacare" -- that prospect is now dead)

6. Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act: not drafted yet, not enough Republican support in Congress

7. End Illegal Immigration Act: not drafted yet, bill to reduce legal immigration has been released to much fanfare

8. Restoring Community Safety Act: not drafted yet

9. Restoring National Security Act: not drafted yet

10. Clean Up Corruption in Washington Act: not drafted yet

Lil' Marco says the bill Trump backs has no chance of passage. He knows it, the White House knows it, and we know it.
