An estimated 800,000 immigrants who are working legally in the United States are waiting for a green card, an unprecedented backlog in employment-based immigration that has fueled a bitter policy debate but has been largely overshadowed by President Trump’s border wall fight and the administration’s focus on migrant crossings from Mexico.

Most of those waiting for employment-based green cards that would allow them to stay in the United States permanently are Indian nationals. And the backlog among this group is so acute that an Indian national who applies for a green card now can expect to wait up to 50 years to get one.

"The employment green card backlog tops 800,000, most of them Indian. A solution is elusive."

The solution is not "elusive".
Rather, it's quite simple:
END the "green card" policy, and send them back or tell 'em to stay home in the first place.
