The White House is finalizing plans for a U.S.-Mexico border clampdown that would shut off asylum requests and automatically deny entrance to migrants once the number of people encountered by American border officials exceeded a new daily threshold, with President Joe Biden expected to sign an executive order as early as Tuesday, according to four people familiar with the matter.
The president has been weighing additional executive action since the collapse of a bipartisan border bill earlier this year.
The Biden administration has grown ever more conservative on border issues as the president faces ceaseless criticism from Republicans and there are large numbers of migrants crossing into the U.S. from Mexico who are not easily returned, especially as global displacement grows from war, climate change and more.
sounds like a right leaning conservative to me
what about additional executive action on anything else like women’s rights, minimum wage, or anything that could count toward the human good
This is a failure of Congress. Biden only has three options. Turn them away at the border, detain, or nothing. Nothing defaults to current immigration policy of busing from border cities to sanctuary cities. Sanctuary cities are at capacity, so the migrants would be homeless upon arrival. What do you propose he do? Turn away, detain, or leave them homeless in overcrowded sanctuary cities?
Your “minimum wage” link states multiple times that it is only for federal employees, not for the general population. There are still states where you can get less than 10$/h.
Well yeah he’s a Federal Executive office holder. Is anyone confused about that? Anyone not understand the difference between state and federal government?
There have been leftists who were also anti-immigration. Cesar Chavez campaigned against illegal immigration as he saw those immigrants as a main source of scab labor. The main economic argument against an open border policy is that it depresses wages.
It just happens to be that the right uses anti-immigration more as it is the easiest economic giveaway to low wage citizens.

Neoliberals have coopted the term progressive, just like they coopt, whitewash, and scrub away all of our movements.

Sounds like you don’t know the difference between presidential and congressional power.
Only Congress can issue immigration reform and increase the budget for sanctuary cities.
POTUS can only allow entry, detain, or turn away at the border.
Our sanctuary cities are at capacity.
What do you want him to do?
