Extended Families Would Fare Poorly in New Immigration Law - New America Media

Extended Families Would Fare Poorly in New Immigration Law - New America Media:

 "The broad-reaching bill — termed “clearly a compromise” by President Barack Obama, who nevertheless expressed his support for the proposal – would significantly increase the numbers of all employment-based visas, whilst narrowing the availability of family-based visas by tightening the definition of who is eligible. Significantly, the measure also creates a long pathway to citizenship for the nation’s 11 million undocumented residents.  

... but also objected to the elimination of the two family-based visa categories, which currently allow U.S. citizens to sponsor the brothers and sisters and married children over 30."
