The Immigration Debate Heats Up While President Trump Meets With Global Leaders in Davos
President Trump is in Switzerland today meeting some of the world's biggest leaders at the World Economic Forum. He is bringing a large contingent of American officials, but one who didn't end up making the trip is White House Chief of Staff John Kelly. The White House says Kelly stayed behind to help work on immigration reform.
Todd Johnson, Managing Editor at The Grio, says he thinks it's a bad sign that Kelly isn't in Davos. Without Kelly, Johnson says there is no one moderating what the president says and does.
Back in Washington, Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) is expected to propose new immigration legislation. His bill would expand the number of H1-B visas available for skilled immigrants. President Trump has been a vocal opponent of the H1-B visa program. Johnson says he doesn't see the president getting on board with Senator Hatch's plan without funding for his border wall.
