Us President Donald Trump says he wants to shut down the visa program which allowed the suspect in the new york truck attack to enter the country so full of came to the u. S. From his back is done in two thousand and ten under the Diversity Visa Lottery Program better known as the green card lottery eight people were killed and eleven of his injured when the pickup truck plowed into cyclists and pedestrians in manhattan trump said hes now taking steps to end the visa program as soon as possible i am today starting the process of terminating the diversity lottery program. Im going to ask congress to im really. Initiate work to get rid of this Program Diverse array. And diversion the lottery diversity lottery sound charge its not nice of our good start going it hasnt been good weve been against it of more in this light speech i want house correspondent kimberly how of course President Trumps crackdown on immigration is nothing new what is the significance of this announcement on this on the Green Card Program thats been in place now. I well i think whats significant is the president s reaction to a tragedy that has occurred its a sharp contrast from what we saw from george w. Bush when the september eleventh attacks occurred that certainly is one point that many have noticed here in the United States while george w. Bush used his opportunity as president to try and comfort those who are grieving what weve seen President Trump do in contrast is to use the attacks to advocate for immigration policies that are somewhat controversial in the United States as you point out hes using this is an opportunity to end the Diversity Visa Program which has long been contentious in the United States but did offer those from countries that dont typically have a lot of immigration to the u. S. Not only a green card but a path to citizenship now the president not only speaking here at the white house but in a series of tweets has criticized this program pointing to it as a source of National Security risk but also to blaming democrats for any opposition to his proposals to reform immigration the United States specifically a top democrat here in the United StatesSenate Charles schumer calling him in fact somebody who is to blame for this program not surprisingly Chuck Schumer on the floor of the senate responded to all of these attacks by the president saying that essentially the president is politicizing a tragedy and also is showing a lack of leadership when it is needed most. So hes now entered into a war of was with Chuck Schumer as you say cant believe where does it go from here hes saying he wants to start the process to end this program a. S. A. P. Does it go to congress now well certainly not only does it go to congress because of course the president cannot act unilaterally on programs that the congress has put in place but also to there are some things the president can do under his executive authority he announced almost immediately after the attacks that he was stepping up his extreme vetting through the department of Homeland Security and as you know the president has long been trying to revamp immigration under the argument that there is a need for stepped up National Security since he was elected on january twentieth or rather put in sworn into office and you put in place various versions of the travel ban which have been altered as well as challenged in court but you have to remember too this is what donald trump campaigned on he said it on the campaign trail he was going to do it now that hes in office hes been trying rather vigorously to try and do it in snow using this attack in new york as further argument of why there is a need for very swift immigration reforms in the United States all right thank you very much kimberly ok Tim Washington d.
