Golden Citizen Card

Donald Trump's proposed "Citizen Gold Card" immigration initiative seeks to grant wealthy foreign investors a pathway to U.S. citizenship in exchange for a $5 million investment. This program aims to replace the existing EB-5 visa, offering green card privileges like permanent residency and unrestricted travel. While proponents suggest it could generate significant revenue and attract affluent individuals, the proposal faces legal and practical obstacles due to the need for Congressional approval. Critics raise ethical concerns, highlighting potential benefits for foreign elites and questioning the vetting process, and the potential for fraud. Ultimately, the Gold Card reflects a shift in immigration policy towards prioritizing wealth while encountering significant challenges to its implementation.
