NEW YORK (AP) — First lady Melania Trump’s parents have visited a federal building in New York City with their immigration attorney.
The Slovenian couple had no comment Wednesday afternoon after about an hour-long meeting in the building which houses offices for federal immigration officials who help process citizenship applications.
Lawyer Michael Wildes says Viktor and Amalija Knavs are lawful permanent residents of the U.S.
The attorney and the White House have declined to comment on whether the first lady’s parents are seeking to become U.S. citizens.
A spokeswoman for the first lady declined to comment Wednesday saying Mrs. Trump’s parents are not part of the Trump administration and deserve their privacy.
Republican President Donald Trump has pushed to restrict immigration.
Gee, I think there’s a name for this…oh, yeah, right — chain migration.
I thought Trumpsters were against it.
Hmmmmm. Quite puzzling. One would almost think there’s a double standard here.
I guess some “chain migration” is A-OK with the Orange Shitgibbon.
@lizzymom
Your comment posted just as I was typing mine…great minds think alike.
@tiowally: Another great mind!!
Fast-tracking “chain migration.”
Where’s that border wall when you really need it?
Serious questions: Why are they going for citizenship now? What would it be protecting them from? Or do they think it’ll be easier given their son-in-law’s current job?
