The Biden Administration’s immigration coverage represents a radical shift from these of earlier White Houses. As Secretary of Spirituality, I’ve been known as upon to shepherd non-citizens on this new journey. It’s time to rectify the errors of the previous, by following Biden’s eightfold path to citizenship.
1. Right View
We can’t break from our predecessors with out first altering our mind-set. No longer will we carelessly course of utility after utility. We should cease and ask ourselves, Where is that this applicant going? America? Right, sure, America.
Expect us to stay on this state of contemplation for no fewer than sixteen months earlier than sending a affirmation message.
2. Right Intention
Requiring you to fill out paperwork with a quill pen, to take one passport picture on daily basis for a 12 months, and to journey to your nearest embassy in the hunt for the crystal shavings we use to stamp your utility? This is merely how we gauge your dedication.
3. Right Speech
Words have energy, and our immigration types have lengthy wanted extra considerate and loving language. From right here on out, all U.S.C.I.S. paperwork will probably be printed in Papyrus font and have motivational epigraphs.
4. Right Conduct
We urge candidates to rid themselves of fabric items and possess solely what is important to life. Non-citizens ought to purge thirty per cent of their earnings to pay taxes. Green-card-seekers can count on to half methods with seventeen hundred and sixty {dollars} in utility charges. It is righteous to fund providers that one could not get pleasure from at this stage of the trail.
5. Right Livelihood
Everyone should make a residing, however some careers are much less honorable than others. We will rid ourselves of illicit dealings by privatizing detention facilities each time doable. Government-run detention facilities will shut on a rolling foundation after we’ve adequately saged the services.
6. Right Effort
A optimistic mind-set is important. Some who’ve been wrongfully deported underneath earlier Administrations will probably be permitted to return. Some who’ve beforehand been permitted to keep will probably be deported. Nature is cyclical and immune to the worth judgments of man.
“Right” or “wrong” is solely conjecture. Everything exists in a relation to all different issues—look no additional than how our actions on the world stage create the very situations that necessitate your utility for refugee standing.
7. Right Mindfulness
Live within the second, and shortly you’ll see that it takes solely 5 years to receive a inexperienced card, in case you subscribe to a linear notion of time. Your citizenship standing is one thing that you’ll all the time pursue. The distinction between a second and a decade must be imperceptible with the right mind-set. This is why we’re the primary Administration to supply guided meditations throughout utility wait intervals.
Mantras will probably be assigned at your personal price.
8. Right Concentration
Once you’ve realized how to correctly meditate, you may flip your focus to a single object. For this Administration, that focus will probably be on border safety. This is the place our path converges with that of earlier Administrations. We will manifest our focussed ideas by introducing tunic uniforms for all ICE brokers and increasing background checks to embody previous lives.
