It's 70% of legal immigration Mike, so there's a lot of it and it isn't the enemy. They sponsor a family member.
"Roughly two-thirds to 70% of legal immigration is family-sponsored, or "chain immigration," meaning it is based on family ties rather than skills or employment. Between 1981 and 2016, about 61% of all immigrants admitted to the U.S. were chain migration immigrants." - Lambo>/I>

Wow, The percentage is that high! Maybe the original applicant had some useful skill needed by the USA but that doesn't mean the rest of his family chain has any skills that sustain or improve our economy. Immigration should a merit-based program that gives preference to immigrants based on job training, education, and English proficiency and not so much about their family member who is already here.
