The Uzbek man who killed eight people in New York City came to the United States on a diversity immigrant visa. After the attack, President Donald Trump announced he wants to work with U.S. lawmakers to end the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. Trump said, I am going to ask Congress to immediately initiate work to get rid of this program diversity, diversity lottery. Sounds nice; it’s not nice. It’s not good. It’s not good. It hasn’t been good. We’ve been against it. The diversity visa program is known as the green card lottery. It is the only hope for some would-be Americans to live in the United States. The program is open to non-refugees, individuals with no family members in the U.S. and those lacking an employer willing to guarantee them a job. To be considered for the program, a person must have a high school education or a few years of work experience.
