The Reforming American Immigration for a Strong Economy Act (RAISE Act) is a Republican-led immigration reform bill, introduced in bipartisan fashion but primarily driven by Republicans, in multiple versions during the 115th and 116th Congresses. It aims to reduce legal immigration levels by approximately 50% through a merit-based points system for employment visas, elimination of most family-based immigration categories beyond spouses and minor children (ending 'chain migration'), termination of the Diversity Visa Lottery program, and a cap of 50,000 refugees per year granted permanent residency. The bill stalled in committee and did not advance to a vote in either chamber. It was supported by President Donald Trump and restrictionist groups, but criticized by Democrats, immigrant rights organizations, and some Republicans for being anti-family and economically harmful.
