Biden's New Border Order Faces Criticism and Legal Challenges
The executive order, aimed at curbing asylum claims, sparks controversy among politicians, activists, and legal experts.
- The order suspends asylum processing between ports of entry if daily crossings exceed 2,500.
- Human rights groups and legal experts argue the measure violates U.S. and international asylum laws.
- Biden's former press secretary admits the move addresses political vulnerabilities ahead of the election.
- Critics from both parties claim the order is either insufficient or harmful to migrants' safety.
- Legal challenges are expected, with the ACLU planning to sue the administration.
