| Donald J. Trump's landslide election sent the message to Americans
| that his administration will tackle the patriotic immigration reform
| challenge. The mission for the incoming administration is to revamp
| immigration so that it helps, not hurts, Americans. The new White
| House faces a steep uphill climb that has grown more difficult since
| the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 passed. The sixty-
| year-old act's lead supporter, Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.)
| told his Upper Chamber colleagues that, "The bill will not flood our
| cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our
| society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not
| cause American workers to lose their jobs." Upon signing the act on
| October 3, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson doubled down on
| Kennedy's statement when he said the bill would not be radical, "It
| does not affect the lives of millions ... It will not reshape the
| structure of our daily lives or add importantly to either our wealth
| or our power." Kennedy and Johnson were either uninformed or more
| likely, bald-faced liars. Under President Joe Biden's
| administration, admission standards are non-existent, and the
| immigrant population has soared to a peak 51.4 million in 2024, a
| 6.4 million increase since Biden took office. Foreign national job
| holders represent the fastest growing and often the dominant share
| of the monthly Bureau of Labor Statistics report.
What will be the foreign born share of the American labor market at
the end of Trump's second term and how does Susie Wiles recommend
JD Vance sell those hard facts to legacy American proles?
