As the immigration crisis at the southern border of the United States continues to escalate, President Joe Biden is reportedly considering granting amnesty to illegal migrants as a potential solution. According to Politico, Biden and his administration are exploring various strategies to address the pressing issue of illegal immigration, which has drawn significant criticism for the perceived lack of action. One proposed plan involves providing green cards to undocumented immigrants who have resided in the United States for more than a decade. This initiative, if implemented, would grant these individuals amnesty, allowing them to remain in the country legally. The criteria for eligibility would include having relatives who would face hardship if the migrants were deported, as reported by Politico.
Additionally, the Biden administration is contemplating strategies to provide support to states and cities that have absorbed a significant influx of illegal immigrants, such as Denver, Colorado, and New York City. This proposed assistance could alleviate some of the burdens placed on local communities grappling with the challenges of immigration.
