President Joe Biden has now expected to end a series of restrictions on asylum seekers at U.S. border crossings put into effect under the Trump administration due to the threat of Covid.
As Fox 5 San Diego reports:
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration has a draft plan to end the asylum limits at the U.S.-Mexico border by May 23 that were put in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19, according to people familiar with the matter.
The decision, not yet final, would halt use of public health powers to absolve the United States of obligations under American law and international treaty to provide haven to people fleeing persecution.
Ending the limitations in May would allow for time to prepare at the border, the people said. But the delay runs against the wishes of top Democrats and others who say COVID-19 has long been used as an excuse to get out of asylum obligations.
It also raises the possibility that more asylum-seeking migrants will come to the border at a time when flows are already high. The Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday that about 7,100 migrants were coming daily, compared with an average of about 5,900 a day in February and on pace to match or exceed highs from last year, 2019 and other peak periods.
According to sources familiar with Biden’s plan, it remains in draft form and has yet to be formally finalized.
He should be the president of Mexico instead of America
Of course, Brandon wants more Democratic voters from south of the border. Hey, if he can run illegal elections, why would he be opposed to illegal aliens voting!
Tell me how, when these caravans of thousands reach the border, we are able to distinguish those who are actually fleeing persecution from those who just want to be here, from those who are cartel members, or who are criminals escaping their arrest warrant and others who have no business being here? Brandon is a complete stupid, moronic imbecile and so is his entire cabinet and staff.
No borders, eliminate the middle class, and Democrats have a permanent lower class to abuse and take advantage of! Part of the plan to redistribute wealth and keep them in power until the US is part of China and becomes a communist country.
The boarder is open. What a farce to put this article out.
HE was end in April 2022
Corrupt democratic government
What the demos mean to say is that they will let more illegal democrat voters cross into America. Not, asylum-seeking migrants
This MORON is out to destroy this country!!! He literally makes me sick to my stomach. Any third grader would have been a better president.
When are we going to get rid of this old idiot, we won’t have a country left if we don’t!
Yup, let’s get rid of Covid reducing asylum seekers so we can allow more illegals into the country, but keep the Covid mask mandates for Americans using public transportation. I am sure the illegals are being tested for Covid and receiving vaccines before they fly (for free) on our airlines….
Another Democrat scam – just wait until all asylum seekers are granted citizenship so they can vote this November.
Let’s Go Brandon
Impeach 46
Defund the FBI
Why bother? They’ve never stopped coming in or been required to be tested for Covid, but provided free healthcare, or vetted for warrants, or leave any record they are here or where they are going now that they’re here, yet provided free transportation into the interior. Why would they subject themselves to the hassle of processing properly at our border? However, maybe finally we’ll have immigrants willing to abide by our laws.
It is time to try the Biden Administration for Treason! There is more than enough Evidence for a Conviction, and Sentencing!
Of course Biden wants all the illegals he can let in, thinking they will vote for democrats! He hasn’t looke at the trend that most Hispanic voters vote republican! The joke is on him!!!
Biden is sad joke!
It is our duty and responsibility to protect our borders and Biden has failed in that duty. He has proven he is a failure to America and America needs to rid itself of traitors and fools. He has not made a decent decision in America’s behalf
Biden is violating the US Constitution by not securing the US southern border!
limits on Ukrainians but not on illegal border insurgents with a high level of terrorists is what this communist democrat demented regime wants to destroy our nation from within!
Come one Come all?? since 1-20
Trump had one when he was in office : BUILD THE WALL you dimwit !
