President Biden Signs New Executive Action Drastically Tightening Asylum

A Haitian woman is handing her passports and documentation to a Mexican border official at the El Chaparral border crossing as she waits with her family for their CBP One appointments at the US-Mexico border in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, on Thursday, June 6, 2024. 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 looms high this election season.
