Liberal politicians and organizations decried Biden administration immigration policies as 'dangerous,' 'cruel,' 'moving backwards' and in line with the Trump administration.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott reacts to Biden visit to the southern border and what he suggested for the Biden administration to address.
The White House has emphasized that its new asylum rules are not a ban on the process but simply a requirement to set up an appointment with the Department of Homeland Security to arrive at a port of entry to make their claim, which removes the incentive for a migrant to be trafficked by smugglers. The move is seen as an attempt to reach a middle-ground approach at the border where migrants are turned away if they refused to follow a more accessible asylum process.
The White House claims its border polices differ from the Trump administration, but immigration groups disagree. "His commitments to people seeking safety will ring utterly hollow if he moves forward in substituting one illegal anti-asylum Trump policy for another," Blazer said. President Biden walks with members of the U.S. Border Patrol along the U.S.-Mexico border fence in El Paso, Texas, on Jan. 8, 2023., unlike the Trump administration’s, because it includes measures to expand opportunities for asylum as migrants while unauthorized claims are turned away at the border.
