America has presented a new plan for illegal immigrants to leave the country. Under this, President Donald Trump is talking about giving financial help to people living without documents in exchange for returning home.
Trump said- illegal immigrants will be given allowance to return to the country
During a recent interview, Trump said that his government will itself provide air tickets and allowance to those who return to their country. This move of America is being considered a big step towards sending back people with serious criminal records to their country, thereby opening the way for good people to come to America legally.
Trump softens on immigration
Trump said that the government will give them an allowance. They will be given some money and a plane ticket too. Then the government will work with them. If they are good and the government wants to call them back, then ways will be found to call them back soon.
This is being seen as a better way to return legally instead of the strict measures taken by Trump earlier regarding immigrants. However, it is not yet known when this scheme will be implemented and what will be its eligibility criteria.
Putin compared Elon Musk to the father of the Soviet space program
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday praised Elon Musk, comparing him to the father of the Soviet space programme, Sergei Korolev, the chief engineer behind the Soviet Union's space success in the 1950s and 1960s.
Putin was speaking on Russia's space policy at a meeting with students
According to news agency Toss, Putin was speaking on Russia's space policy at a meeting with students. He said that Elon Musk is working hard for the Mars mission. He compared Elon Musk and Sergei Korolev, a Soviet engineer who played a key role in the Soviet Union's success in sending Yuri Gagarin on the world's first manned space flight in 1961.
Putin had previously praised Musk
Putin said that it is very rare to see people in the human population who are inspired by a particular idea. Even though it seems unbelievable to me today, after a while such ideas often come true. Putin had earlier praised Musk, calling him an outstanding person, whose business interests also include the SpaceX space technology company.
22 thousand IRS employees in America offered to resign
About 22 thousand employees of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the US have offered to resign. These people have also signed the latest resignation proposal of the Trump administration. This may weaken the ability to collect taxes in the country.
Last year the IRS had about one lakh employees
The IRS had about 100,000 employees before President Donald Trump took office. About 5,000 employees have resigned since January and an additional 7,000 probationary employees have been fired, though those layoffs have been challenged in court. If these layoffs take effect, the agency would be on track to lose about a third of its staff this year.
The employees will be placed on paid administrative leave until September
Under the terms of the Trump administration's resignation offer, employees who accept the deal will be placed on paid administrative leave until September and will then leave their jobs. Some employees who accept the offer may still avoid resigning. The reduction of one-third of the IRS workforce could lead to more layoffs and funding cuts for the remaining staff.
