A graduate student woman in medical school. who is not making that money. falls in love and marries a physician in France. She cannot bring him in because. even though he is affluent. has all the assets needed. there is no indication in the world he will go on any government program. she cannot bring him in. This is the stupidest as well as the meanest provision I can imagine. When we had moratoriums on immigration in this country. we allowed U.S. citizens to bring in their spouses. Why would we want to change that now? I urge a "no" vote on a bill that is soft on illegal immigration and harsh and mean on legal immigrants.
