A resolution denouncing the Biden Administration's immigration policies.

4/6/2024, 8:08 AM

This resolution urges the Biden Administration to immediately use certain authorities related to immigration, such as the authority to reinstate the Migrant Protection Protocols, enter into asylum cooperative agreements, and detain inadmissible non-U.S. nationals (aliens under federal law). The resolution also states that the Biden Administration is refusing to use such authorities.

Bill 118 SRES 608 is a resolution introduced in the US Senate that denounces the immigration policies of the Biden Administration. The resolution criticizes the administration for what it describes as a lack of enforcement of immigration laws and border security measures. It also expresses concern over the increase in illegal immigration and the strain it places on resources and communities.

The resolution highlights specific actions taken by the Biden Administration, such as halting construction of the border wall, ending the "Remain in Mexico" policy, and implementing a more lenient approach to asylum seekers. It argues that these policies have led to a surge in illegal immigration and created a crisis at the southern border.

Supporters of the resolution argue that the Biden Administration's immigration policies are irresponsible and undermine national security. They believe that stronger enforcement measures are necessary to protect the country's borders and prevent illegal immigration. Opponents of the resolution argue that the Biden Administration's approach to immigration is more humane and compassionate than the previous administration's policies. They believe that the focus should be on addressing the root causes of migration and providing a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants already in the country. Overall, Bill 118 SRES 608 is a contentious resolution that reflects the ongoing debate over immigration policy in the United States. It is currently being considered by the Senate and has sparked heated discussions among lawmakers and the public.
