Biden to Sign Executive Order Limiting Asylum and Curbing Immigration

President Joe Biden is expected to sign an executive order this week to limit the number of migrants allowed to claim asylum at the southern U.S. border, sending them back to Mexico until the daily average decreases. The exact threshold for pausing asylum claims is still under discussion. The order is anticipated to face legal challenges, and administration officials are urging Congress to pass a bipartisan border bill. Local officials from Texas have been invited to the White House for an immigration-related announcement.
