Biden's Executive Order Could Have a MASSIVE Impact on Asylum Seekers at the US-Mexico Border. Here's What You Need to Know.

President Biden is preparing an executive order that would shut down asylum requests at the US-Mexico border if daily migrant encounters average 2,500 or more. The order would only reopen asylum once encounters decline to an average of 1,500 per day, a threshold not seen since July 2020. White House officials informed lawmakers of the planned order ahead of Biden unveiling it on Tuesday at an event with border mayors and could take immediate effect if enacted.
