The White House, not entirely accurately, touted the president's record on immigration in his waning days in office.
President Joe Biden and the White House sought to shore up the administration's record on immigration, aiming to show a stronger record on border security than perhaps many voters felt was the reality over the past four years.Posting on social media on Tuesday, the White House also took a jibe at Republicans in Congress for failing to pass the much talked about bipartisan border bill, while touting a surge in law enforcement to the U.S.
It was also meant to: Create a roadmap to citizenship for undocumented migrants Keep families together while waiting for immigration cases to be determined Clear employment-based visa backlogs and expand work permits to family members arriving through the H-1B and other visa types Support more asylum seekers and vulnerable populations While the bill was introduced in Congress on February 18, 2021, it died in committee and was never picked up again.
