This is a major law enforcement measure by Biden in the election year aimed at easing the pressure on the immigration system and addressing the main concerns of American voters. This is also the strictest border policy formulated by Biden or any modern Democrat, comparable to Trump's actions in 2018 to cut off immigration, but Trump's immigration measures were blocked by federal courts.
