“President Biden signed executive actions Tuesday ordering the review and potential reversal of the Trump administration’s deterrent policies along the Mexico border and the barriers it created to legal immigration, calling his predecessor’s actions ‘very counterproductive to our security.'”
“Senior administration officials described the actions as a warm-up to additional measures in coming months. For instance, the Biden administration plans to significantly raise the cap on refugees allowed into the United States every year, according to two people familiar with its plans who spoke on the condition of anonymity to disclose private discussions. The goal, the people said, was to raise the annual cap on refugees to 125,000 per year. That would be a substantial change from the Trump administration, which slashed refugee levels to 15,000 last year – the lowest since the Reagan administration” – Washington Post.
