A visa lottery that has enabled thousands of Kenyans to establish US residency will come to an end if Congress and President Donald Trump approve legislation proposed on Tuesday by two senators.
The 27-year-old Diversity Visa programme, commonly known as the Green Card Lottery, awards permanent resident status to about 50,000 persons per year from countries with historically low rates of immigration to the US.
