People are saying that he said what is in the hearts of millions of foreign students and workers.
What did JD Vance say?
In response to the woman’s question, JD Vance said he is in favor of limiting the number of legal immigration. He said, ‘We cannot take lakhs of people every year. If some immigrants have contributed, it does not mean that we should allow millions to come. This will deteriorate the social structure of the country. However, he did not tell what the correct number should be.
Impact of Trump administration’s strict policies
Actually, this debate is increasing due to the old immigration policy of the Trump administration. In this, lakhs of illegal immigrants were expelled from the country. Several changes were made to the H-1B visa system. The visas of approximately 6,000 international students were cancelled. Questioning these policies, the woman said that what kind of justice is this to those who took the visa legally, paid the fees and followed the system?
‘If your wife is Hindu, do you think she is less American?’
The woman asked another sharp question, ‘If your wife is a Hindu, will she have to become a Christian to become an American?’ Vance remained silent for some time on this question, then said, ‘My wife Usha comes to church with me every Sunday. I want her to believe the Christian gospel one day, but even if she doesn’t, there is no problem, because God has given everyone free will. Mixed reactions were heard in the hall on his answer also.
