The effectiveness of President Joe Biden's executive order announced last week that aims to slow crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border is in question.
Migrants wait between border walls separating Tijuana, Mexico, and San Diego, to apply for asylum with U.S. authorities, Friday, April 12, 2024, seen from San Diego.
The order bars migrants from being granted asylum when U.S. officials determine the southern border is overwhelmed, which goes into effect when the number of border encounters between ports of entry reaches 2,500 per day. There have been questions about how the order would be implemented and enforced since its announcement last week and it is likely to face multiple legal challenges. A similar order under the Trump administration was thrown out by the courts, indicating Biden’s order could meet the same fate.
