Sep 16 – EB5 Legislative Update -Mid September

September 16, 2019

<!– Comment –>
<p><strong>Comment: EB5 Legislative Update -Mid September</strong></p>
<p>
<strong>Will Trump do something?</strong>
</p>
<p>
· The EB5 industry is rife with rumors that the Trump administration will
ride to the rescue by stopping the new regulation going into effect on
November 21<sup>st</sup>. The arguments offered in support of this hope
are: (i) Mr. Trump understands real estate; (ii) NYC developers have Mr.
Trump’s ear; (iii) the Trump administration has aggressively used executive
orders.
</p>
<p>
· Under the Administrative Procedure Act, a Final Rule’s effective date can
be stopped or postponed by amending the Final Rule using the APA’s regular
amendment process. However, such an amendment would be (a) time-consuming,
(b) unlikely to aid the USCIS’s EB5 mission, (c) would open other aspects
of the new regulation to court challenge, and (d) is contrary to White
House directives to USCIS to accelerate regulatory change. Due to the
aforementioned reasons, an APA action on the effective date is quite
unlikely.
</p>
<p>
· An executive order from the White House to postpone the effective date of
the EB5 regulation would run afoul of the APA. In other words, President
Trump will not do something on the new EB5 rule because he cannot do
anything under the law to stop the rule at this stage.
</p>
<p>
· Conclusion: the new regulation will go into effect on November 21 <sup>st</sup>; we urge everyone in the EB5 industry to prepare accordingly.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Repealing the regulation</strong>
</p>
<p>
· Sen. Paul (R-KY) is urging the use of the Congressional Review Act to
annul the new EB5 rule. Consequently, many in the EB5 industry are hopeful
that Congress can stop the rule from going into effect on November 21 <sup>st</sup>.
</p>
<p>
· Since the enactment of the CRA in 1996, many attempts to use the CRA have
been made by Congress, with only 3 successes: (a) the most notable success
was by the previous Republican Congress to overturn 14 Obama-era
regulations and (b) two other CRA actions by Congress in the last 23 years.
During these 23 years, the percentage of regulations overturned by Congress
has been less than 0.02%. Sen. Paul’s CRA attempt here is of a piece with
his reputation for Quixotic missions, he has a long record of failure
therewith in the Senate.
</p>
<p>
· Moreover, Immigration Daily has learnt that a discussion took place
shortly after the announcement of the new EB5 rule on possible CRA action
at the office of an urban-friendly EB5 Senator with considerable influence
in the Senate; the conclusion of the discussion was that CRA action was not
viable.
</p>
<p>
· Conclusion: the new regulation will not be overturned by Congress using
the CRA, we urge everyone in the industry to prepare for the new regulation
going into effect on November 21<sup>st</sup>.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Congressional rescue</strong>
</p>
<p>
· A significant effort by the EB5 industry is under way for long term
legislative relief. Industry consensus is said to have been achieved on
principles, if not actual legislative text. However, relief may not
materialize for the following reasons.
</p>
<p>
· The leading argument offered by proponents of legislative relief is that
NYC developers have deep pockets, significant profits from EB5, and that
“money talks”. Given the serious divisions among Democrats and Republicans
on immigration, reflecting the deep divide among the American public on
immigration, the money brought to the table by NYC developers is too
little. It would take considerably more money to move Congress on
immigration, and even then, it would be a long-term, multi-year endeavor.
Immigration Daily welcomes such an effort by the EB5 industry – we simply
caution that a “quick fix” in this Congress is very unlikely.
</p>
<p>
· Rural EB5 gets a muscular boost on November 21<sup>st</sup>. All
agreements made by rural interests prior to the publication of the new
regulation are likely to be viewed in a new light once serious give and
take on actual text commences in Congress, a probable scenario is a free
for all with urban EB5 and rural EB5 interests at loggerheads, with the
result being the status quo, i.e. the new regulation remaining the law of
the land post November 21<sup>st</sup>.
</p>
<p>
· Conclusion: Congressional rescue is improbable, accordingly, we urge the
EB5 industry to prepare for the new rule to go into effect on November 21 <sup>st</sup>.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Conclusion</strong>
</p>
<p>
· There seems to be little factual basis for the hope that USCIS’s new EB5
rule will not go into effect on November 21<sup>st</sup>.
</p>
<p>
· Given that a veritable gold rush is currently under way among investors
seeking to get in under the deadline, we encourage all projects currently
in the market to make the most of this opportunity. ILW is conducting many
events in the next few weeks, these may be the last EB5 events we conduct
before November 21<sup>st</sup>, we urge projects to consider
participating, please see the information below.
