The grift goes on - Wealthy families could consider Trump's gold cards over fears about birthright citizenship

More and more wealthy people may turn to President Donald Trump’s proposed $5 million Gold Card visa program as birthright citizenship is under threat, a new report claims.

Trump issued an executive order earlier this year seeking to end birthright citizenship, which is safeguarded by the U.S. Constitution, for parents who are in the U.S. illegally. A U.S. District Judge has since blocked the order, but the Supreme Court could still hear another case on the issue.

Ali Jahangiri, head of the EB5 Lending Alliance, told Newsweek the interest in Gold Cards and EB-5 visas — which can grant permanent residence to certain foreign investors — could skyrocket if birthright citizenship is restricted or removed.

"Removing or restricting birthright citizenship would close a loophole used by many foreign nationals and shift demand toward investment-based and merit-based immigration pathways like EB-5 and Gold Cards, which provide more secure, legal, and long-term immigration solutions for wealthy families looking to secure a future for their children in the U.S,” Jahangiri said.

The precedent has already been set but with today's Extreme Court who knows.
