Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said there are 250,000 people waiting to obtain President Donald Trump’s “gold card,” a visa that can be sold to immigrants for $5 million and grants them work privileges.

Trump announced a new program to lure wealthy and highly-skilled professionals to the U.S. But experts say Congress – not the president – holds the authority to make that move.

Congress Controls U.S. Citizenship Policy. The president can influence immigration enforcement, but he alone cannot change citizenship or immigration.
