Trump Announces $5 Million ‘Gold Card’ for Immigrants as Pathway to Citizenship

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday unveiled a new “Gold Card” for immigrants, a premium alternative to the traditional Green Card, priced at $5 million. Trump stated that the initiative would offer a pathway to citizenship for those who can afford it, positioning it as an exclusive immigration option.

The announcement comes amid ongoing debates over US immigration policy, particularly at the US-Mexico border. Critics argue that the program favors the wealthy, while supporters see it as a way to attract high-value migrants. Further details on eligibility and implementation are expected in the coming weeks.
