    Halting immigration is not in general a good idea, but so long as we're paying millions of people not to work, threatening citizens who move around in public, & closing schools, churches, & routine doctor visits, I don't see a lot of downside to a temporary pause in this, too.

        Plus a likely wave of even more desperate people wanting to come here.

        No one in those fields is getting laid off in the first place, and hard to imagine that legal immigration would overlap with those workers and not already be in country. But doctors and other highly skilled individuals are very likely those being halted from coming over.

        You should be much more concerned about your fellow Americans, especially working Americans who have had to compete with the foreign cheap labor from immigrants that greedy employers demand a neverending supply of. We should've had an immigration moratorium long ago.

        They work in healthcare and agriculture. We need medical care and food.

        So you’re not at all concerned about the nations food supply that relies on seasonal migrant workers?

        Halting travel in general is a decent idea. Halting immigration specifically is a weird flex. Aren't many of the people going through the immigration system already living here?

        Yeah a good question, & those not yet on soil are likely in higher skilled jobs, including healthcare and the sciences. But this is an easy political “win”. I’m not a “Trump is a nazi” person, but Stephen Miller is a deeply troubling figure with immense influence on this issue.
