Biden Admin Outpacing Trump’s on Immigration-Related Executive Orders
President Joe Biden is outpacing former President Trump on executive actions relating to immigration, with 403 orders in his first two years.
According to a recent audit, the Biden Administration has issued 403. Executive orders regarding immigration during its first 2 years. Policy Report From the Migration Policy Institute.
He is expected to surpass the 472 executive decisions that Trump made on immigration during his four-year term.
The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS). highlighted some of President Biden’s more damaging orders. Biden’s first two years saw him modify public charge rules to make it easier for immigrants to get welfare benefits funded by American taxpayers.
Biden also has limited immigration enforcement operations. This is something that the Federation for American Immigration Reform has (FAIR) assured. “that an alien’s illegal status will not compel any government enforcement action.”
He’s also withdrawn Department of Labor regulations that supported wage protections for workers in the United States. FAIR notes that this was due to Immigration and Customs Enforcement reducing their enforcement of workplace policies.
CIS alleges that Biden also implemented initiatives designed to “hide mass illegal immigration from public view by accelerating the processing and transport of migrants.”
Matt O’Brien, the director of investigations for the Immigration Reform Law Institute, cited examples of executive overreach from the Biden Administration, including “over-the-top, DACA-like abuses of power, like creating special admission programs for Ukrainians and Venezuelans and calling them ‘parole.’”
Biden’s flurry of executive actions related to immigration “perpetuates Obama’s immigration disaster on a grander scale. It’s a sequel without equal,” O’Brien charged.
O’Brien also predicts that Biden’s executive orders could meet legal trouble and that many of them “aren’t going to stand up to scrutiny in jurisdictions other than the radical, leftist 9th Circuit Court.”
