    It's basically the same deal Melania got.
  • @johnwang6356
    Under current laws, a spouse of American citizen can apply and get a green card in few months. I don’t understand why we need this executive order.

    "They are rapists, criminals." Trump talks about himself, as he always does.
  • What kind of person WANTS to hurt people?? A Sick “Baseball”. I can’t use the word I want to use. You know what talking about!!wonderful achievement!! Sad this took so long. I live in Oklahoma. Our representative worked on a comprehensive plan including funding with bipartisan support. Trump blocked it!! How hateful can a person be!!
  • Good action to be taken. Maybe the United States still does have a heart. Spouses should be considered citizens. Why not?

    I think Pres Biden should have done that years ago.
  • If Biden keeps up this pace, he will absolutely rock the top 3 of best American presidents ever after his second term!!
  • @PistachioDean
    I love that this is a big middle finger to the Republican Party
  • I think this is a fair deal from the Biden admin. The Republicans in congress didn’t want to pass the bipartisan immigration bill, soooo ... this has to protect spouses and their children. It’s the right thing to do for them. Good luck and may the force be with you. 🇺🇸🗳💙
  • From that interview with Chuck Todd, Trump had no answers... The damage this man did to the country is insane...
  • @moondarling2618
    Everyone in America came from somewhere, from another country if you are not a Native Americans. Please remember that.
  • @trapperkatie1
    Great news for these American citizens and their families. Bravo President Biden 👏
  • @corky9589
    It’s the right and Christian thing to do but Donald wouldn’t know anything about that
