Joe Biden Claims Border Security Bill Was ‘Toughest… Ever’
Claim: President Joe Biden claimed in his State of the Union address that the border bill that Senate leaders introduced in February is “the toughest border security reform we’ve ever seen.”
Verdict: False.
Mr. Biden argued: “In November, my team began serious negotiations with a bipartisan group of senators. The result is a bipartisan bill that contains the toughest border security reforms this country has ever seen. ”
However, the bill’s complex legal terminology led to further wage cuts for immigrants.minimize border wallsobliges catch and release For economic immigration, protect Biden’s parole backdoor for wage-cutting employers, fund more aid to immigrants, and more. exile highway The organization is overseen by an immigration advocacy unit made up of “asylum workers operating outside of U.S. courtrooms.”
On March 6, Breitbart News published a detailed rebuttal to Biden’s repeated boast of “the toughest border security reform this country has ever seen.”
A major driver of large-scale illegal immigration is the belief that immigrants can pay off their smuggling debts to coyotes and cartels by getting jobs in the United States.
Biden visited the border on February 29th. explained Immigrants’ rational calculations: “If a criminal organization says, ‘We’ll take you north for $8,000,’ … you’re not going to pay the cartel thousands of dollars to make that trip because you know you’ll be kicked out.” ” around right away. ”
But Biden is not trying to turn back immigrants. He has allowed at least 6.2 million immigrants to cross the border and take U.S. jobs that pay off smuggling debts to cartels.
Many of the migrants who were turned away at the border learned that Biden’s Border Director, Alejandro Mayorkas, had directed immigration officials not to deport immigrants with jobs unless they had committed serious crimes. Because of this, he soon sneaks back as a “fugitive”. .
This federal government’s “catch-and-release” policy enables the cartels’ labor-trafficking business: immigration in the North and cash in the South.
But the senators’ border bill strengthened the conveyor belt of migrant workers and cartels’ cash by requiring border officials to release migrants who simply say they are applying for asylum.
The Act “creates a new section 235B of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA);[s] “It’s called a provisional non-custodial removal process (PNRP),” former immigration judge Andrew Arthur wrote in the Center for Immigration Studies. report:
“This provision would allow the Secretary of DHS to send immigrants to the PNRP based solely on undefined “operational circumstances” if the immigrant expresses a fear of persecution or applies for asylum…
Unlike section 235(b)(1) of the INA. 1709880845 make it mandatory Detention of illegal immigrants subject to expedited deportation, including those found to have valid and credible fear claims – PNRP to proceed under INA’s proposed Article 235B make it mandatory release. Rather than “approving” a release, force it.
The release of PNRP adults is subject to the placement of these foreign nationals in “alternative detention facilities” (ATDs), but even that rule is not absolute.adult head only home If you are released under the PNRP, you will be subject to ATD and not other adults or children… ATD is expensive failure It does not ensure that aliens are eliminated [deportation]”
ATD is Biden’s alternative to the existing legal requirement to detain migrants until their asylum claims are completed. But ATD is inviting immigrants so that they can get jobs in the U.S. and pay off their smuggling debts, even if their asylum claims are completely false.
The bill would allow immigrants to get work permits faster and get higher-paying jobs instead of waiting about 120 days under current law.
In summary, Biden’s claim of the “toughest border security reform” is false.
