US Immigration System Update: Modernization and Bipartisanship Efforts
The US immigration system is broken and needs to be modernized, according to President Biden. The White House has urged the Republican-controlled Congress to take action on immigration reform, including an increase in the number of immigration judges and Asylum officials and more funding for border security. However, Republicans are using immigration as a political tool and have not come to the table to have a conversation about how to safeguard Dreamers and Farm Workers. In the meantime, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program protects young people who were brought to the US illegally by their parents. The US Immigration Update Channel provides the latest US immigration news and processing updates to help individuals on their US immigration journey.
