Here is the underlying issue. Immigration is not funded by US taxpayers. It is funded by user fees - that the immigrant pays. The costs for those services, meaning employees, retirement, facilities, are paid the fees charged immigrants. USCIS can not hire more employees so everything has slowed down. Beginning in the late Bush administration thru the Obama administration, no significant fee hikes were approved. Trump did propose fee hikes but was denied. Ironically Trump provided a path to improvement but some people wouldn't accept any solution he put forth.
