Scott Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 President Joe Biden is heading to the US-Mexico border on Sunday on the heels of major policy announcements and following relentless calls from Republicans who believe the trip is overdue. The trip to the border – the first for Biden since he took office – comes as the administration wrestles with a growing number of migrants, overwhelming federal and local resources. Republicans, some border-district Democrats in Congress and even Democratic mayors have criticized Biden for failing to address record levels of border crossings. https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/08/politics/joe-biden-border/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ozimoron Posted January 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2023 DeSantis isn't going to like this. Biden is extending title 42 to include Cubans. Biden admin will block more Nicaraguans, Cubans, Venezuelans and Haitians at border but also open more legal pathways https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/title-42-block-nicaraguans-cubans-haitians-rcna64418 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwest5829 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 10 hours ago, Tug said: It’s about the best he can do on account of the republicans unwillingness to work on immigration reform I cannot work up much hope as immigration has a way of getting, "kicked down the road" for decades now. Still, the vast majority do seem to recognize a major overhaul is needed to be addressed by Congress. OK, Republican Party, you hold the majority in the US House of Representatives and there is reason to hope that the US Senate recognizes immigration is an area where there is a bi-partisan desire to address the issue. So ... let's see ... oh, I acknowledge the Republican radicals in the House will be looking to make political investigation points rather than proposing legislation. The only hope there is a centralist bi-partisan House coalition to out vote the radicals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the US, immigration legislation is needed to be passed by both houses of Congress. That is why nothing meaningful has been addressed. Neither political party has had any idea as to how to address the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try reading the full interview and not take words out of context for self gratification. He has new programs to curb illegal migration that include restricting illegal border crossing and rapid expulsion for illegal border crossing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/01/05/biden-border-security-immigration/ 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all know what to do - put a functional worker visa in place. It's too emotional an issue to settle. This keeps everyone barking at each other, distracting them while the government is robbing them blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozimoron Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 This is an excellent policy because the US does need more migrant workers and the 30,000 legal refugees will satisfy that need somewhat. Better then employing illegal economic migrants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
