Biden announces new asylum cap in bid to deter illegal crossings
Briefly

President Biden will announce executive actions to bar migrants who cross our southern border unlawfully from receiving asylum.
The administration will send migrants deemed ineligible to their home countries or Mexico unless they express a convincing fear of persecution.
Republicans voted against a bill combining asylum cap and funding, influenced by Trump's opposition and concerns for the election.
The administration's ability to deter migration by curbing asylum access faces limitations due to insufficient detention space, deportation capacity, and asylum officers.
