    The U.S. government will also stop issuing “diversity visas” to nationals of Sudan and Tanzania, Wolf said. The visas - which Trump has criticized in the past - are available by lottery for applicants from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.

    USCIS announced tonight that it will begin implementing its public charge regulation on Feb. 24. The rule allows federal officials to deny green cards to legal immigrants who have received certain public benefits or who are deemed likely to do so in the future
