📢 La ley de inmigración en EE.UU. no cambia con un simple anuncio. Donald Trump puede decir lo que quiera sobre una nueva visa “Gold Card”, pero aquí está la realidad: ningún presidente puede cambiar la ley de inmigración por su cuenta. ✅ El programa EB-5 está protegido por ley hasta al menos 2027. ✅ Fue reautorizado con apoyo bipartidista. ✅ El Congreso, no el presidente, decide el futuro de estos programas. He trabajado en el gobierno federal, en la administración del presidente Obama, y he visto de primera mano lo complejo que es cambiar estos programas. La inversión y la inmigración no se rigen por promesas de campaña, sino por leyes claras. Si estás considerando invertir en EE.UU. a través de EB-5, no te distraigas con titulares políticos. El programa sigue intacto y funcionando. 🎥 Mira el video y dime, ¿qué opinas sobre la última propuesta de Trump? #EB5 #InversiónEnEEUU #VisasDeInversión #MigraciónSegura #EB5Visa
