That was really interesting and informative, and written in a style that encourages reading to the very last word.

Thank you, I shall keep an eye out for your work in the future.

I think you meant April 2026 twice in the article when you referred to the end of the first 15 months.

Very sensible and well-informed piece. Here's hoping the right people read it.

While I do support a shift in legal immigration policy to favor the higher-skilled (and lower toleration for accepting family members from abroad), I believe some actions and policies directed to the identification and removal of illegal aliens MUST be undertaken. Certainly the ubiquitous use of E-Verify by employers should be the law of the land. As well, there should be immigration status checks attending all police and governmental interactions with the nation's residents. Those identified as non-citizens without permission to be here should be targeted for immediate deportation (or as soon as is practicable). Deportees should be allowed to take their property and assets with them to their home countries where the skills and wealth they accumulated in the USA can be used to the benefit of their own citizens.

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I generally agree with that, but I think that in the first 15 months, the key goal should be implementing legislation. It may be another generation before a chance like this happens again.
