Brush up on the history of those racist literacy tests please. They were not actually testing literacy. Likewise this immigration law is not about letting people in or not, that's the visa which is much more lax. And often follows another more temporary visa. Benefits of being a US citizen are some, but not really enough in comparison to just being in the US which needs only the visa. (Especially business/employee visa.) It's not a test for intelligence either, unless you explain to me how you need to be smart to be in a relationship. Stable employment (of one of the partners) is something, I guess, if it's checked, but that's a different immigration visa that is quite limited. The check for language is done at visa application... (See point of people already having a previous visa, usually.)
