Immigration Law Restricts Mail Order Brides

The New York Times reported that a more restrictive policy toward mail-order brides, that factors in the man's criminal record, has led immigration to freeze 10,000 visa applicantions by U.S men, frustrating their hopes for a happy marriage.

The foreign women have complained, as one Russian said: "The longer it takes us to get to America, it's that much longer before we can get divorced."

The big benefiiciaries of this law are American women who have been given more time to compete for these bread-winners.
