The Biden administration is determined to show voters it is taking a tough stance on immigration by implementing even stricter asylum restrictions at the southern border.
The new rules stipulate that daily border encounters must stay below 1,500 for nearly a month for restrictions to be lifted, now counting all children.
Even though the previous restrictions have never been lifted, a senior administration official insisted on a longer timeline to ensure reductions in immigration are sustained.
Immigration advocates have criticized the administration’s new restrictions, arguing they are undermining essential protections for asylum seekers.
