Will Joe Biden's new immigration plan work? | Inside Story

It's a plan aimed at limiting the number of asylum seekers allowed to cross the southern United States border.
Joe Biden said after signing the executive order this week, that he did what he can to address the border.
He blamed Republicans for not reaching a bipartisan border security deal in Congress.
The US has seen record numbers of asylum seekers at the border with Mexico.
And the issue has dominated the campaign trail ahead of November's presidential election.

So, is this move politically motivated?

Needs to be ZERO (0) migrants a day until the millions here who have entered illegally are processed
~ Mexico needs to take responsibility for its facilitation of this crisis

[jaydinmoore]

Why is there so many Chinese citizens coming through the southern border?

[spreadthejoy]

Close the United States BORDERS DOWN FOR GOOD WILL DEFINITELY WORK And prioritize United States citizens in their OWN country

[artfull]

This is a difficult topic because USA has huge numbers of homeless citizens already

[WilliamNguyen-mbhv]

These poor countries ( governments ) tell their citizens going to US for financial security future ( they send money back to their families, countries )
Human financial machines ( slave labor exporters )

[denisewarren]

So what do they want everybody here in the US?

[colleensmith]

I'm pretty sure every citizen in America would like to take a plane anywhere and be able to get home, but these illegal immigrants are not vetted going anywhere across our country on our money, totally fixed the problem😜🇺🇸

[obnkssp]

Funny thing is: No one ever says WHY are they all of a sudden letting any and all come into our Country? Why isn't anyone talking about this?

[molkakaminski]

do they have visas? or been ESTA vetted?

[hirofujira]

Rather than making a proper deal with republicans to protect border. He punish them and entire country by opening border. How does that make sense?

[zoverlvx]

1. Stop supporting tyrants who persecute their citizens, so they don't have to flee their homeland.
2. Stop funding/arming all countries in the Middle East and place severe restrictions from entry (even dual nationals).
3. Advocate for those who want to be here, not those who need to be here.

[janesimmons]

[MrDXRamirez]

Globalization has a crippling effect on economies, a multipolar world is the answer.
The poor and destitute from 190 nations facing economic crisis and climate change moving to a handful of rich nations is absolutely insane.
There has to be a shift to a multipolar world economy where buying from the world market does mean they have to buy dollars to develop their own economies.

[ruyaal]

Should we blame old age or weakness or just plain stupidity of an incumbent president that does not lead just react to events and tries to ape Trump. He’s clearly lost the election.

[Jazzfestn]

Has ANYTHING worked for Biden?! Bwa ha ha!

[stevenobinator]

LOVE HOW THEY PICK WOMEN CROSSING THE BORDER AND NOT THE 95% MEN
