美国全国公共广播电台“晨报”节目的消息，伊利诺伊州提出，只要富裕的中国人,在美国投资达到50万美元，他们,就能够拿到美国绿卡。
 
美国国务院19日宣布:2012年将增加对中国大陆非移民签证40%,和近期提出将台湾列入美国免签证计划，纽约旅游业和相关人士普遍认为-势必会带动大批两岸游客涌入美国，并指出:未来自助游的增长趋势，巴士、中餐馆、景点开发、酒店业面临挑战,同时,蕴涵商机。
美国务院增加40%的非移民签证,明年,入境美国的非移民大陆公民,将达到130万,以去年入境105万为例，光游客,就达到35万，预计,明年游客将超过40万，同时增加的,还有来自大陆的政府和商务团，预计,应该会增加15万;其次,会带动来美国参加夏令营和冬令营的交流学生团和访问学者。
随着更多游客涌入，今后「自由行」，自己租车横穿美国的人,会增加；巴士供应、中餐馆、景点和适合大陆游客的酒店将面临挑战，「势必会经过一段调整期」，如果旅游业持续稳定增长,会让更多观望的投资者,进入到该产业链;
美国,2008年开放,对中国因私旅游以来，初步统计，美国东、西两岸的导游,从400人,增加到如今的1000人左右。
对于纽约市来说，吸引休闲和商务游客是个大生意。官员说，纽约市旅游业,去年带来320亿美元的收入,提供了32万份就业。这对于预算短缺和金融业前景不明的纽约市,有着巨大影响。
纽约市旅游公司（NYC & Company）执行长费提塔（George Fertitta）说，我们认识到:我们几乎无法控制的力量，比如,世界经济形势。没有人能真正预测汇率波动，但是,根据我们的所有研究，我们相信:今年游客至少增长2%。

纽约市长彭博,2006年预测:纽约市游客将于2015年,达到5000万人，随后,将日期提前到2012年,最终,提前一年实现目标。
自从彭博市长提出吸引游客的目标之后，纽约市的游客人数,已经从2005年的4270万人,上升到2011年的5020万人。
同一时期，纽约市旅游业,超过美国其它市场，其中,酒店停留时间,比2005年增长20%。
奥巴马总统,1月19日表示:美国要加快“向世界开放市场”的脚步，并制定了简化旅游者来美的签证办理程序。
奥巴马在佛罗里达州迪斯尼世界宣布了一项总统行政命令，旨在简化和缩短针对中国和巴西的旅客办理签证,到美国旅游的程序和时间。

美国国务院主管东亚暨太平洋事务的助理国务卿坎伯(Kurt Campbell)
奥巴马,19日宣布的新计划,将增加中国大陆及其他亚洲国家来美国的游客。
美国放宽签证程序，并特别针对中国、印度和巴西三国，主要因为-这三国签证申请太慢。这三个国家与日俱增的财富，使其到国外旅游的公民人数急剧增加。签证申请慢的瓶颈，主要是九一一恐怖袭击事件以来，美国建立十分严格的、多层次审查的签证处理过程，以阻止恐怖分子进入美国。所有签证申请人,每次申请签证，都须面谈，导致申请赴美国旅游的人数急剧下降。

美国过去10年,因此损失了8590亿美元，并失去了50万个就业机会。
「全国移民论坛」表示，这项简化旅游签证手续，将有效推动美国经济，同时,维护美国的安全。

反对的声浪-国会参院司法委员会首席共和党议员葛拉斯理(Charles Grassley，爱荷华州)反对放宽签证申请。
