Since election night, there has been an explosion of blog posts relating to how the second term of Donald Trump’s presidency will affect immigration. Are even more Americans going to pursue citizenship elsewhere? Will Trump’s plans for the economy attract more investors to the US? Or will his proposed tariffs drive them away? Will his history of strict immigration policies make people once again reconsider the US? Or has his focus on clamping down on illegal immigration in this past election softened his anti-immigrant reputation? Trump’s first term was memorably chaotic, but a lot has changed since then–with Trump, the US, and the world.
Join Mona and Rebecca as they discuss what RCBI and EB-5 under a second Trump presidency could look like. The industry experts offer their extensive experience–including experiences under Trump’s first term–as they speak on the possible good and bad, and what’s changed since 2017!
“There is enthusiasm from what we’ve seen, for foreign investors coming in. And not even just for investing into the US, and for creating new projects, and obviously the whole program is based on jobs — which is another of Trump’s points in bringing more jobs back to the US. So, I think we’re seeing more and more who are looking to come into the US. Versus, as we’re saying in the beginning, people are talking about coming to Portugal and looking at outbound immigration. So, we’re seeing both sides.” – Rebecca S. Singh
