Chain Immigration

Apparently the NYC Subway Attempt-A-Suicide-Pipe Bomber entered the U.S. via a process known as chain immigration. I’m sure this has been going on for quite awhile and probably has it’s roots in the Immigration reform laws of the 60’s.

Pulled all of the following from here,

so take the info for what it’s worth.

Well that's certainly an eye opener for what I see where I live.

This reminds me of the whole anchor baby thing.

This is also known as" immigration." Calling it Chain Immigration is just a dumb attempt to drum up new fear over something that has never changed. People relocate to be with family? Sounds the alarms! Chain Immigration is the same as Gunshow Loophole.

I ask this because I don't know. Does "chain" immigration change the vetting process for each subsequent family member?

Honestly, I've never immigrated, or even know an adult that has, so I don't know. I just know an info graphic created to plant an opinion with no actual thought (most of them) when I see one.

Did you watch the video?

I will watch now.

I watched. I think I've actually seen that video before. It wasn't as moving as I'd hoped.

It's not really the same as "immigration". Or it shouldn't be. Having an immigration policy in place where there are standards for allowing people to enter the country based on their skills, training or other benefit to our society is perfectly acceptable and it's what we should be doing.

Allowing chain immigration, people following family members who've been allowed to immigrate here, without regard to any benefit they may be able to bring with them, creates huge social and other problems in this country.

I'm all for reforming our immigration system and policies from top to bottom and stopping this process would be a good place to start. But it's gonna take more than that.
