Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Launches the Gold Card Program…

• The Order directs the Secretary of Commerce, in coordination with the Secretaries of State and Homeland Security, to establish a “Gold Card” program.
  • The program facilitates expedited immigrant visas for aliens donating $1 million individually or $2 million if paid for by a corporation or similar entity on behalf of an individual.

REFORMING IMMIGRATION FOR NATIONAL BENEFIT: This Order will realign Federal immigration policy with the Nation’s interests and bring prosperity to America.
