  Recently, in an exclusive interview with HBO's Axios program, Trump stated that he plans to sign an executive order to cancel the citizenship of babies born in the United States to non-U.S. citizens and unauthorized immigrants, effectively ending "birthright citizenship." In the interview, Trump said: "We are the only country in the world where a person comes in and has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States for 85 years with all of those benefits. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. And it has to end." This shocking news has caused widespread panic.

  What is "Birthright Citizenship"?

 

  "Birthright citizenship," also known as birthright, was formally written into the U.S. Constitution in 1868 as the 14th Amendment, primarily to protect the equal rights of former slaves in the United States. The law stipulates that anyone born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof is a citizen of the United States and entitled to residency. It was not until after 1960 that this law was applied to illegal and temporary immigrants. These children born in the United States to illegal immigrant families are often jokingly referred to as "Anchor Babies."

 

  Undoubtedly, if "birthright citizenship" is abolished, the greatest nationality benefit of giving birth in the U.S. will vanish. Affected groups include all individuals studying and working in the U.S. on F1, H1B, and other visas, families intending to give birth in the U.S., and all illegal immigrants.

 

  Do not wait or hesitate; secure legal U.S. status through EB-5 as soon as possible.

 

  Trump's proposal to cancel "birthright citizenship" is not a whim; in fact, it is an important component of his entire immigration reform plan. As early as his 2015 campaign, Trump stated that "birthright citizenship" was a magnet for undocumented immigrants and that he intended to abolish this policy.

 

  As everyone knows, since taking office, Trump has gradually fulfilled his campaign promise of "America First," beginning to tighten immigration and visa policies and continuing to implement them: building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, strictly reviewing visa applications, tightening the H-1B visa program, reducing the number of legal immigrants and refugees, implementing travel bans on Muslim-majority countries, expanding the scope of visa application interviews, and cracking down on overstays. Recently, there have also been plans to cancel work permits for H-4 visa holders and to set maximum stay limits for F1 student visas. Without exception, this series of policies proves that the path to immigrating to the United States is becoming narrower and the threshold higher; even just working or studying in the United States is becoming increasingly difficult.

 

  Although there are certain obstacles to the implementation of Trump's plan to cancel "birthright citizenship," given his style, who knows what will happen in the future! Therefore, for those who intend to immigrate to the United States, do not wait or hesitate, and do not gamble with your future. The best time for immigration is always now; if you do not want to regret it later, take action early.

 

  As you know, the U.S. EB-5 investment immigration program, which has a history of nearly 30 years, is highly favored by investors due to its relaxed application requirements, with no restrictions on age, language, education, or business experience. In the current climate of increasingly stringent U.S. immigration policies, EB-5 investment immigration remains the most reliable way to obtain a U.S. Green Card! Through the EB-5 investment immigration route, you can not only obtain a U.S. Green Card for your whole family and enjoy U.S. educational resources and social benefits, but also diversify your assets from RMB to USD, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

 

  Under the current circumstances, you can choose high-quality projects that have been approved by the USCIS, have the potential to shorten waiting times, have completed all job creation requirements, and offer first-priority repayment guarantees. These features greatly protect the interests of investors, help them successfully immigrate to the United States, and allow their children to enjoy the advantages of a Green Card immediately.
