Trump floats green cards for noncitizen college graduates
SUMMARY
President Donald Trump recently proposed on a podcast that noncitizen graduates of U.S. colleges should receive automatic green cards, a move aimed at retaining highly skilled talent. Trump reiterated the importance of keeping graduates from prestigious universities like Harvard and MIT in the country, which he claims will help to contribute to American innovation and economic growth. While critics point to past visa restrictions under his administration, Trump restated his commitment to facilitating legal immigration for skilled individuals, a stance consistent with his 2016 campaign promise.
