DENVER — President Joe Biden is expected to issue an executive order that could limit the number of immigrants allowed to come into the country through the southern border.
“I think it's all politics,” said Christina Brown, an immigration attorney and executive director of the Colorado Asylum Center, which provides legal representation to immigrants and helps them navigate the asylum process."I think it's unfortunate that this administration is once again politicizing asylum seekers and trying to, for what appears to be the upcoming presidential election,” said Brown.
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston said he didn't know about the president's plans when Denver7 asked him about it Monday. “Our border would be far safer if Republicans weren’t putting their party’s campaign needs over our national security. We could’ve passed a bipartisan border bill to fix this crisis 118 days ago,” said Hickenlooper. “Today’s severe executive order is a result of Republicans boycotting a bill they demanded and negotiated. President Biden is doing what he must. But we could do far more, far better if Republicans actually cared to solve the crisis.
