White House Unveils Immigration Framework

The White House shared with Congress yesterday its “framework” for immigration reform, which includes, in general terms, the Administration’s plan for “Dreamers.”  The text of the framework is available here.

Key parts of the plan include:

  • a 10- to 12-year pathway to citizenship for 1.8 million DACA-eligible individuals;
  • $25-billion trust fund for a border wall; and,
  • elimination of “chain” migration and the visa lottery system

The Administration has stated that it plans to release a more detailed plan next Monday.
