Donald Trump Extends The Suspension Of Works visas and Green Cards
U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday issued a proclamation extending the suspension of issuance of work visas and green cards.
Trump imposed the measures in April and June to protect job opportunities for American workers amid a rise in unemployment due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The proclamation came hours before the president’s executive order on the immigration restrictions was set to expire.
The order will now expire at the end of March, extending into the first term in office of President-elect Joe Biden, who has vowed to reverse Trump’s immigration policies.
The proclamation said allowing immigrant workers into the country would “pose a risk of displacing and disadvantaging U.S. workers during the economic recovery following the COVID-19 outbreak”.
“The effects of COVID-19 on the United States labour market and on the health of American communities is a matter of ongoing national concern.
“And the considerations present in Proclamations 10014 and 10052 have not been eliminated,” Trump wrote in the proclamation.
The president first imposed the restrictions on the issuance of green cards for immigrants in April, and expanded it in June to limit several other work visas.
They include new H-1B tech worker visas, H-2B seasonal worker visas, certain J work and education exchange visitor visas and L executive transfer visas.
The proclamation said the recent surge in COVID-19 cases had surpassed previous highs in June.
This, in addition to implementation of pandemic-related restrictions, has placed further strain on U.S. businesses, it said.
“The effect of recently approved vaccines and other treatments has not yet been fully realised for the U.S. labor market.
“While the November overall unemployment rate in the United States of 6.7 per cent reflects a marked decline from its April high, there were still 9,834,000 fewer seasonally adjusted nonfarm jobs in November than in February of 2020,” the proclamation added.
The order applies only to foreigners who are currently outside the U.S. and do not yet have permission to enter.
Those who already have permanent residency are not affected, and there are exceptions for certain people, including spouses and children of U.S. citizens. (NAN)

The man told them he was suffering from an ulcer and that he could no longer afford his medications, so they gave him some money so he could buy medication and food.
But an Estate worker discovered a video of the same man who was apprehended for staging a seizure.
Nevertheless, the man came back the following day in an attempt to get the remaining sum of money they had promised to pay him.
Now that they knew about his deception, the inhabitants beat him to barely an inch of his life.
See the video below:

“Why men need side chics” – Preacher reveals, netizens react
Nigerian preacher has mentioned the four important reasons why a man needs a side chick
The pastor explained in an Instagram video that, despite what is commonly believed, men need women by their sides in addition to their marriages.
He disclosed the four key reasons for side chicks’ importance.
The first explanation offered by the pastor was stupidity. He said that having side chicks is the finest way for a man to look dumb.
In response to a question about why guys are still searching for Coke after they have one, he pointed out that Coke in a bottle, can, or plastic is still Coke.
He identified premature death as the second reason why males require a side chick.
According to the preacher, a guy who wishes to pass away too soon must overwork his heart and stuff his body with unnecessary items.
He mentioned shame and embarrassment as additional reasons. A man who enjoys dishonor and shame, according to him, needs a side chick because that’s what he will eventually get.
According to him, a man should only require a side chick if he enjoys difficulty and turmoil.
