There is a hegemon-like power dynamic here; instead of a much-touted marriage of equals that is the model for other Americans—the one prescribed by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requires that foreign spouses remain “conditional” (read beholden) to their sponsoring American spouses for at least two years. By then, the patterns of power in a marriage have likely entrenched themselves, or those who cannot take this skewed power play have fled, reconciled to being single and poor and lacking opportunity rather than to live at the whim of their overbearing spouse.

"The condition of H-1B, J, and L visa holders remains just as precarious. Once granted to highly skilled workers and intra-company transfers and researchers, their issuance has been entirely halted by the Trump administration. Those who have the visas and are in the country need not worry, they’ve been told. As for what happens when they need renewals, no one knows. It’s nail-biting anxiety, this habitation of American life while teetering on the cliffs of exclusion, but it has not caught the attention of any enterprising reality show creator. It could be for entirely tribal reasons; the crowd likes an American to root for and those who arrive at America’s gruff shores on their own merits make for less mesmerizing dramatics"
