Amid the headlines and online information surrounding U.S. immigration policy, it's easy to feel uncertain about what’s changed, especially if you’re a foreign scientist looking to come to the United States or secure your permanent residency. However, even though there are new economic and law enforcement factors that now must be considered, the path to a green card for scientists remains largely the same when compared to the previous administration.
