Immigration and tech: The White House speaks out | Signal Strength - CNET News

Immigration and tech: The White House speaks out | Signal Strength - CNET News: "ut the president also talked about reforming the current legal system of immigration to make the process of getting work visas and green cards easier to obtain, while also making sure that families stay together.
'Indeed, after years of patchwork fixes and ill-conceived revisions, the legal immigration system is as broken as the borders,' he said. 'Backlogs and bureaucracy mean the process can take years. While an applicant waits for approval, he or she is often forbidden from visiting the United States--which means even husbands and wives may be forced to spend many years apart.'"

I hope he makes this the priority.
