What is the Biden administration's new border policy?

  1. Summary
    President Biden on Thursday announced a two-pronged border policy that will increase legal immigration while increasing expedited deportations. Mexico agreed to accept greater numbers of deported migrants. The legal admissions would be capped at 30,000 per month. There were about 82,000 illegal border crossings in November.

    The U.S. will increase the number of migrants it accepts from Nicaragua, Cuba, and Haiti (where many recent migrants have come from). Eligible migrants will need to pass background checks and must have a U.S. sponsor. The admissions would be under a humanitarian pathway that allows migrants to live and work in the U.S. on a temporary basis.

    The policy is modeled after the administration's humanitarian pathways for Ukrainian and Venezuelan migrants. In October 2022, the U.S. convinced Mexico to accept more deported Venezuelans while the U.S. agreed to allow more Venezuelans to enter legally. The administration said the policy resulted in a large drop in Venezuelan migrant crossings.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - A large chunk of the population does not even watch live TV or listen to the radio anymore. So if politicians want to reach people, especially in the younger generations, they have to advertise on social media.


No - The lack of critical thinking and questioning by most social media users, along with the known targeting by foreign powers to create subversion answer the question. Social media is ...
