According to a report from The Daily Wire, President Biden is readying a plan that will give more than 500,000 illegal migrants permanent residency in the United States.
Biden is expected to announce the plan Tuesday.
From The Dialy Wire:
The Biden administration’s new policy would ease the pathway to permanent residency for illegal immigrants married to U.S. citizens, The New York Times reported, citing officials familiar with the plan. It was first reported last week, and Tuesday’s formal announcement would mark the 12th anniversary of President Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), which protected some children in the U.S. illegally from deportation.
Biden administration officials who were briefed on the new policy expect that it could affect up to 500,000 illegal immigrants, but the exact number remains unclear, according to the Times. Under the new rules implemented by the Department of Homeland Security, some illegal immigrant spouses of U.S. citizens would be given an easier path to apply for permanent residency and work permits.
The president is also expected to announce a separate rule on Tuesday that would help DACA recipients, commonly referred to as “Dreamers,” receive work visas. Biden’s rules on illegal immigrants come as he faces an ongoing crisis at the southern border and voters voice their concerns about illegal immigration ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
