The Biden administration is reportedly considering implementing tougher asylum laws and expediting deportations for migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border through executive action, without the need for Congressional approval. This move, aimed at addressing the ongoing migrant crisis, would make it more challenging for migrants to pass initial screenings for asylum and quickly deport those who do not meet the criteria. The potential actions, drawing parallels to measures taken by the Trump administration and considering a law dating back to 1952, have sparked discussions on their legality and the possible repercussions on the administration's relationship with the left. The consideration of such measures comes as the administration seeks ways to manage immigration issues more effectively ahead of the 2024 election.
