Trump Says Immigration Deal Should End Chain Migration

Cotton's bill is the RAISE Act.

President Donald Trump said Friday chain migration should not be preserved in future immigration bills, suggesting that a deal to codify the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program would have to include more than unspecified border security measures.
Trump demanded that any immigration bills, presumably to include a DACA deal, should end practice of allowing recent immigrants to bring members of their extended family into the U.S as well.
quote:
Without limits on chain migration, immigration hawks say amnesty for the DACA-eligible population would open a path to immigration for millions of Dreamers’ relatives. A DACA legalization bill currently under consideration would make up to 1.8 million illegal immigrants eligible for conditional legal status and, potentially, U.S. citizenship, according to a study by the Migration Policy Institute.
Under current immigration law, U.S. legal permanent residents and citizens can petition to get visas for their parents, siblings and married adult children. Cotton’s bill would restrict that eligibility to spouses and minor children.

Won't happen, too many potential Democrats and terrorists remain overseas.
