Illegal Immigration
There are about 11 million illegal immigrants in America
There were 1.7 million people were encountered trying to enter The United States illegally in 2021
Most illegal residents overstayed their visa as opposed to crossing the border illegally
Difficulties immigrating to The United States
USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) provides very few pathways to immigrate besides marriage
It costs between $900,000 and $1.8 million to get a greencard in 6 months as an investor but there are no pathways for everyday people to acquire one
USCIS is underfunded due to politics and special interests
Immigration is used as a wedge issue with no solutions being proposed by any institution or political party
The immigration system favors wealthy immigrants leaving virtually no path to a greencard for everyday people
