RAISE the Literacy Bar for Green Cards

Among the most important reforms in the proposed overhaul of America’s green card program is a point system that rewards literacy in English.

The RAISE Act (Reforming American Immigration for a Strong Economy) states: “An applicant may accrue points for English language proficiency. Applicants with equal points and equal educational attainment shall be ranked according to their respective English language proficiency test rankings.”

That all depends on where you're located.  I rather doubt they see many of them in the country.
