I wouldn’t be opposed to any of these, except I would question streamlining work visas. I wouldn’t want our country to bypass background checks, or other security measures by shortening the time needed to streamline those visas.

Oh, and something that would help me greatly (not sure how others feel), but an automatic investigation into any claims of being bullied out of employment by gangs, or other such groups. I don’t know if others have experienced this situation, but when you’re poor, going through divorce proceedings, have children to raise, are sinking in debt, and dealing with health problems, the last thing you need is to have some local gangs bully you out of work with death threats. Your plan looks fine, but I also need a guaranteed safe place to live and work, and no politician seems to want to address this topic because it isn’t about money, or some measure on the ballot.
