The recent attention in the media to the pressing issue of #DocumentedDreamers gives us an opportunity to take a bigger view of immigration issues. The issue of kids aging-out is an unintended though not unforeseeable consequence of massive #GCBacklogs.🧵 👇 1/9
Fundamentally, this is a demand-supply and allocation issue. The number of #GC annually given out has not changed meaningfully since 1990. Meanwhile the US economy and labor market today are completely different from back then. 2/9
On top of this supply issue of #GC is the fact that their allocation is not equitable. How long you wait in line, usually boils down to the country you were born in. Not on skills, education, work experience, duration of stay in the US or contribution to the economy. 3/9
What's your least favorite most annoying #I485 question? This one is truly nuts uscis.gov/sites/default/… 
Why are there so many questions about things that appear to me to be unrelated to someone's eligibility for adjustment of status? Why are you asking about activities and conduct that aren't related to your eligibility for a visa?
It seems to me that USCIS asks lots of questions for which there is no statutory basis to trap people in incorrect answers because they may not know what's relevant and what's not. Then if you supply incorrect info, then they can deny you!
