Trump Unveils Gold Card Visa, Calls Student Exodus 'Shameful'

  • Trump unveiled the "Trump Gold Card" visa program to allow high-skilled foreign graduates to stay in the US and offer a pathway to citizenship.
  • The program aims to address the issue of talented international students having to leave the US after graduation, which Trump called a "shame."
  • Individuals can secure expedited US residency by paying a $15,000 processing fee and a $1 million contribution; companies can sponsor for $2 million.
  • The Gold Card offers a "much stronger path" to US residency and citizenship after five years, compared to traditional Green Cards.
  • The initiative seeks to attract "the best people" to the US, retain top talent, and generate billions of dollars for the country.

Why It Matters: Trump's Gold Card offers a new, expensive path for skilled foreign graduates to US residency.
