I have long advocated for this type of bureaucratic red tape to reduce immigration, as an alternative to fighting it in the courts or working with a difficult legislature.

This is something the Executive Branch controls 100 percent. Just slow the process to a halt.

Don’t “ban” immigrants from specific countries: just put them at the bottom of the pile and subject them to more scrutiny and paperwork.

Use the bureaucracy as a weapon.
