Are green cards for investment in a Foxconn-WI deal?

Though the controversial green-cards-for-foreign investments program known as EB-5 could expire September 30, it should be pointed out that SE Wisconsin is already a designated zone for the program which the business community really likes.

So it's fair to ask - - as I did yesterday about taxpayers' expected donation to the Foxconn deal which could be announced today - - will any jobs in a deal with the Taiwan-based firm go to people from outside the US in exchange for a Foxconn plant siting in Wisconsin?

The Trump family has used EB-5, and a related program to bring in foreign workers on temporary visas which Trump recently expanded even though he is purportedly the 'America First President.

And is close to Foxconn's founder, Terry Gou.

In other words, stay tuned.
