President Biden Signs New Executive Action Drastically Tightening Asylum
The Playas de Tijuana border fence is being replaced with a 30-foot-high fencing that has deterrent structures where migrants are falling to their deaths or being injured severely when jumping the wall, say migrant advocates at the US-Mexico border in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, on Thursday, June 6, 2024. Facing mounting political pressure over the migrant influx at the southern border, President Joe Biden is signing an executive action on Tuesday that will temporarily shut down asylum requests once the average number of daily encounters tops 2,500 between official ports of entry, as the topic of immigration is looming high this election season.
