Vice President JD Vance on Oct. 29 said the rate of legal immigration should be slowed down, saying that too many people have been allowed into the United States, undercutting U.S. wages and challenging social cohesion.

“Right now, we have let in too many immigrants into the United States of America,” the vice president said. “That is just a fundamental reality now.”
