Sec. 102. Purposes

The purposes of this Act are—

(1) to ensure immigration policy advances the national interest by establishing a universal national interest standard under which each visa issuance, admission, and adjustment of status affirmatively furthers the economic prosperity, cultural cohesion, and national security of the United States, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security under the criteria set forth in this Act; and

(2) to revise and repeal the central framework established by the Hart-Celler Act by replacing family-chain and lottery-based admissions with a merit-based system that prioritizes economic self-sufficiency, cultural assimilation, and the protection of United States workers.
