TL;DR Summary

President Biden would veto a House GOP bill that aims to restrict asylum, build more border wall, and cut a program that allows migrants a chance to stay in the U.S. The legislation represents the GOP’s first major immigration policy proposal since the Trump era, when immigration opponents controlled the White House. The bill would expand border wall building, essentially choke off asylum, and cut the program that has allowed U.S. officials to accept or quickly turn away some migrants from Venezuela, Haiti, Cuba, and Nicaragua. The Biden administration regularly argues that Congress needs to act significantly on the border to fix major problems that have led to record numbers of people illegally crossing.
