Immigration Regulations: Bahamas and People

immigration regulations: Speaking to reporters outside the White House, the president -- who has made strict immigration regulations a pillar of his presidency -- said that everyone needs totally proper documentation, according to CTV. The Bahamas has some tremendous problems with people going to the Bahamas that weren't supposed to be there, Trump said. The previous day, several hundred storm survivors were prevented from boarding a ferry from the Bahamas to Florida because they lacked US visas -- an incident that a top American immigration official said was a mistake. I don't want to allow people that weren't supposed to be in the Bahamas to come into the United States, including some very bad people and some very bad gang members and some very, very bad drug dealers. When announcing his candidacy in June 2015, Trump made derogatory statements about immigrants from Mexico similar to what he said about Dorian survivors, warning they were bringing drugs and crime, and were rapists. Since he took office in 2016, Trump has made multiple efforts to stem the inflow of migrants, mainly from Central America. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
