Trump's comprehensive plan - which will be formally presented next week - includes eliminating the popular "green card lottery" programme and would
severely restrict family immigration.
It would also require Congress to budget US$25 billion for a "trust fund" for constructing a wall on the US-Mexico border - a major plank of Trump's White
House campaign.
"The Department of Homeland Security must have the tools to deter illegal immigrants; the ability to remove individuals who illegally enter the United
States Anthony Averett Womens Jersey , and the vital authorities necessary to protect national security," a senior White House official told journalists.
The White House's offer of a path to citizenship for the Dreamers was much wider than expected. Earlier it had suggested it was only open to granting
citizenship to the 690,000 young immigrants registered under the Deferred Action
for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, programme.
But in exchange Orlando Brown Jr. Womens Jersey , Trump was asking Congress to make future legal immigration more difficult - and to shore up the Homeland Security Department's
toolbox and funding to crack down on the overall population of unauthorized
immigrants, estimated at some 11 million including Dreamers.
SHARP TURN IN IMMIGRATION POLICY
The plan represents a sharp shift in US immigration policies. Trump promised during his 2016 presidential campaign a tough crackdown on illegal immigration,
but has extended this to narrowing the doors for legal immigrations and
refugees.
The end of the lottery system -- which was introduced in 1990 to diversify the origins of new immigrants - was expected and has support from some
Democrats. Trump has argued the programme has allowed people into the country
who have supported Islamic extremists.
"This programme is riddled with fraud and abuse and does not serve the national interest," the White House said in a summary Thursday.
Trump however at least momentarily undermined his push against the lottery when, in immigration bill negotiations with lawmakers in early
January Mark Andrews Womens Jersey , he complained about immigrants from what he reportedly dubbed "shithole" nations like Haiti, El Salvador and countries in
Africa, sparking widespread outrage.
Trump has also argued for ending "chain" migration, the practice of allowing the extended family members of people who already have US citizenship to
immigrate.
Thursday's proposal said that to "protect the nuclear family," family immigration would be only permitted for spouses and minor children.
BATTLE IN CONGRESS LIKELY
The White House plan immediately provoked the ire of Democrats Hayden Hurst Womens Jersey , who made clear they would likely fight to water down the changes in negotiations in coming weeks.
Pro-immigration groups said it would reduce overall immigration by half.
"$25 billion as ransom for Dreamers with cuts to legal immigration and increases to deportations doesn't pass the laugh test," said Democratic
Representative Luis Gutierrez.
"The White House released a hateful, xenophobic immigration proposal that would slash legal immigration to levels not seen since the racial quotas of the
1920s," said Lorella Praeli, director of immigration policy at the American
Civil Liberties Union.
But Republicans voiced strong support.
"I applaud the president for releasing a realistic framework that meets the four immigration pillars agreed by both Republican and Democratic leaders
earlier this month Authentic Tim Williams Jersey ," said Republican Senator Thom Tillis.
"The framework proposes solutions supported by both parties and the American people: securing our borders, providing long-term certainty for DACA-eligible
youth, and making our immigration system more merit-based," he said.
