President Trump has laid the groundwork to block migrants from receiving visas or green cards if they cannot speak English to a proficient level.
Draft regulation from President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security lays out the plan to ensure all migrants to the United States are able to integrate into American society and add value to the economy, rather than become a drain on it.

“English language proficiency is a skill that also is relevant in determining whether an alien is likely to become a public charge in the future,” says the draft “public charge” regulation. The regulation is intended to help officials reject migrants who are most likely rely on American taxpayers for their health care, welfare, housing, and wages.
The draft regulation says:
People with the lowest English speaking ability tend to have the lowest employment rate, lowest rate of full-time employment, and lowest median earnings. According to U.S. Census Bureau data, people who spoke a language other than English at home were less likely to be employed, and less likely to find full-time work when employed. In a 2005 study, “on average, workers who spoke only English earned $5,600 more than people who spoke another language.”
Unlike previous administrations, Trump’s White House has acknowledged that people who cannot speak English are more likely to rely on welfare, and become a burden on society. The draft continues:
Data indicate that the rate of coverage of non-cash benefits among those who spoke English either well or very well (about 15 to 20 percent) was significantly lower than the rate among those who either spoke English poorly or not at all (about 25 to 30 percent).
The new regulation was published after a report showed that the English language is losing its place as the primary language in the United States due to the mass-immigration policies of recent administrations. The report stated that “nearly half of residents in America’s top five largest cities speak a foreign language at home”, and that number is even higher in Los Angeles:
Nearly half of residents in America’s top five largest cities speak a foreign language at home, a new study by the Center for Immigration Studies reveals.
Researchers Steven Camarotta and Karen Zeigler analyzed data from the Census Bureau, finding that more than 48 percent of residents in America’s largest cities — New York City, Houston, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Phoenix — speak a foreign language in the home instead of speaking English.
In Los Angeles, California, nearly 60 percent of residents speak a foreign language at home, while 49 percent speak a foreign language at home in New York City and Houston. In Chicago, about 36 percent of residents speak a foreign language at home and in Phoenix, about 38 percent speak a foreign language at home.
But under Trump’s new regulation, it will be more than just English language skills that officials will be looking for when deciding who can migrate to the United States.
In the quest to find the best immigrants that will integrate into our society and contribute to the economy, other factors will include job skills, good health, and age. For example, older, poorly skilled, uneducated and sickly foreigners who would generate few taxes while costing taxpayers a fortune in pensions and health care will be far less likely to successfully migrate to the United States than in the past.
Unsurprisingly, Democratic groups have come out in opposition to the new regulation, in part because legal immigrants tend to vote for Democrats.
On Sept. 25, for example, Democratic activists in New York registered a naturalized, retired Ecuadorean migrant who does not speak English:

However, the Democrats focus on migrants, both legal and illegal, is widely considered to have damaged their election chances, with minority groups including Latins and blacks turning their backs on the party in record numbers.

BLOCK THE ILLEGAL LEECHES.
well if they cant spell basic grade 3 primary school english words like humour rumour or tumour , colour glamour or armour correctly then deport them to Catholic countries .
And those that are already in the country and cant speak English, should be forcefully removed from the country or executed.
What about a jewish accent…? ;-))
There is no such thing as a Jewish accent. If they have a Brooklyn accent, it is because they are from Brooklyn, not because they are Jewish. And you make fun of Trump for only speaking English? His IQ is about 70 pts higher than yours at least.
How do you know?
Haha, the whole world speaks English…lol
Trump only speaks English poor little boy…
So what? Most Americans can’t even speak correct English any more. How many languages do YOU speak?
6 because I live in Europe. We all had to learn at least English as a foreign language. That’s because the USA ‘liberated’ us…you know.
Otherwise nobody could follow ‘our’ anglo-american masters… ;-))
President Trump Lays Groundwork To Block Migrants Who Don’t Speak English
it is what he should do…it is NOT what he will do….
He already did. He signed the executive order.
The public charge clause is the part that needs to be emphasized. My wife came here from another country on a fiancée visa. I sponsored her. In that process I signed off that if at anytime in the future she became a public charge, I would be liable. So let us say I sponsor my (step) daughter. She does not speak English. Again as the sponsor I would be liable if she became a public charge. So it would depend on the type of sponsorship if any that is being addressed. So to an extent the article is misleading. The issue is public charge and who is responsible for the immigrant.
