Lutnick Tells Congress Trump's 'Gold Card' Visa Has Approved One Applicant — Thirteen Months After Claiming He Sold 1,000 in a Day
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told a House appropriations subcommittee on Thursday that the administration's $1 million Gold Card visa has been approved for one person since applications opened in December. In March 2025, he told the All-In podcast he had 'sold 1,000' of the cards at $5 million each — a claim valued at the time at $5 billion in a single day.
