This is the kind of thing that should infuriate Americans who are for immigration reform and then the swamp does shit like this to undermine the current laws. This needs to be stopped, and its an abuse of power by elected scumbag officials.
The House quietly passed a bill on December 3 to crack open a backdoor route for wealthy Chinese to buy their way into U.S. citizenship by lending money to the U.S. real estate industry.
Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI) portrayed the bill as a boost to trade between the United States and Portugal. But the bill allows wealthy Chinese to get into the United States after first buying Portuguese citizenship.
“Congress is getting duped. … [The bill is] creating a new path for Chinese people,” said one Capitol Hill source.
Wealthy Chinese can buy “golden visa” citizenship from Portugal’s government in as little as 35 days. If House bill H.R. 565 is approved by the Senate and becomes law, then the new Chinese citizens of Portugal will be able to move into the U.S. by getting E-1 Treaty Trader or E-2 Treaty Investor renewable visas.
It should be clear to everyone at this point that the Democrats are the enemies of America. Someone needs to follow the money on this because this bill was already written, bought, and paid for by the Chinese before it got put up for vote.
What the hell are you talking about Stonewall, this bill has bipartisan support, big names in the GOP are behind this…
From the op link,
In the Senate, three GOP senators are pushing a new EB-5 bill that would reform regulation set in place by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Agency. The bill would also steer the foreign EB-5 money away from rural areas and back towards real-estate projects in wealthy cities.
The bill is supported by Sens. Mike Rounds (R-SD), John Cornyn (R-TX), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC). The bill does not yet have enough support to pass the Senate, but Graham may try to include it in the 2021 funding bills.
Republicans that vote with Democrats aren’t Republicans. They are Republicans In Name Only (RINO) and have no place in the party. In fact, they are worse than Democrats because they are traitors to their own party.
But my post you commented on was aimed at all the folks in this thread that are criticizing democrats with no mention of republicans. Also, Trump’s not going to be bothered by this bill.
I know you liberals like to believe that you can control the thoughts and words of everyone, but conservatives don’t do that. I can only speak for myself. Others are free to do the same.
The Republican Senators that support this bill are traitors to the voters , country and the party. This bill subverts the immigration process and the supporters need to be called out.
These 3 Stooges will find a way around a filibuster .Money talks,BS walks.
