Man, this is a great opportunity for a big reset on immigration policy run amok.

Get Americans working those jobs when this virus thing passes.

Making up thoughts in your head.

What dos suspending immigration specifically mean -- no new applications processed, applications in process suspended...green card holders here and holding jobs but have to renew can't?

You don't know.

Another Trump policy probably from some Fox show he saw last night -- or even worse, from Fox and Friends this morning....we don't know.

More than that on the C-D Poll.

The only people that have a problem with this are pro-illegal and pro immigrant groups, as well as just about any politician with a D next to their name because the only rule in their playbook that matters anymore is to go opposite of whatever Trump does.


If Trump developed a cure for cancer they would be screaming that Trump is trying to keep dying people alive. It would be laughable if it wasn't so frickin' sad.

you all are supporting or opposing a policy you have no details on.

And some one here thinks Costco is our problem.

True but I do think right now we need some of the immigration forces to be redistributed to the states about to hit their peak or will in the next month. Case in point, Georgia continues to see 1,000+ cases every day (Google Georgia CoronaVirus cases) yet next week Georgia is gonna reopen including gyms and movie theaters. Their cases are in no way slowing down because the next day they pop right back up. Georgia will get blindsided by this and Kemp should be removed from office.

A lot of people are. A lot aren't. Majority of people are for limited immigration. Even Trump relies on immigration for his businesses.

Oh yes, an organization funded by Big Business that is pro open-borders.

No conflict of interest there!

Yeah, I don't understand that. If anything you would think it is their rival Sam's Club since it is a Walmart owned store...
