This seems a little superfluous, since--thanks in great part to you-- no one *wants* to immigrate to the United States anymore. And in fact, record numbers of Americans want to leave. news.gallup.com/poll/245789/re… Record numbers have, in fact, left.

Lower immigration rates--not owing to this declaration, but owing to the policies, many of them yours, that have transformed the US from "the world's great talent magnet" to "a place from which more wish to emigrate than to immigrate" will mean our economy collapses.
