Trump allies in Congress are literally introducing a bill to cut legal immigration in half.

Whenever I see comments like this I get sad. The idea that the administration is only trying to stop "illegal immigration is just plain wrong. It's clear Steve Bannon sees successful immigrants, especially non white non Christian ones, as a danger. And as for Stephen Miller he literally broke up with a close friend because he was Latino.

Tech companies aren't just worried about profits, many are headed by immigrants and they're worried about an extremely xenophobic white house.
