Is Trump’s plan to bring merit-based immigration going to affect country-based quotas?


The RAISE act doesn’t touch country quotas for employment based Green Cards.

In fact on my reading it implements a cap for spouses and children for family based immigration.


Thank you. My question was in response to this development: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk7iQtad2Qo

Didn't know it referred to the RAISE act.


Nobody knows what this is but it’s likely RAISE plus some amendment for DACA.

It has to go through Congress though so take it with a pinch of salt.
