Comprehensive immigration overhaul

The current administration of the US plans to restructure the entire immigration system and pave the way to promote the first comprehensive immigration reform since the 80s. In fact, the Biden administration recently unveiled a fairly ambitious immigration bill, which is currently under congressional review, and which, if passed, would substantially transform the way the federal government approaches immigration, compared to what happened under the Trump administration.

President Biden hopes to be able to offer a path to legal permanent residence and eventually American citizenship to undocumented immigrants who meet certain mandatory requirements, eligible DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipients, undocumented farmworkers, inter alia.

Adding to that, on the one hand, the Biden administration plans to restructure existing legal processes to reduce mass illegal immigration without implementing arbitrary and restrictive border policies. On the other hand, Biden and his team also want to expand alternatives available to:

• Asylum seekers.
• Refugees.
• Highly qualified foreign workers.
• International students.
• Relatives of American citizens or LPR (Lawful Permanent Residents).

However, the Biden administration faces multiple challenges in promoting comprehensive immigration reform and will need to address other issues and situations first before having the support of Congress.

Biden’s plans might be at risk

Currently, there is a gigantic debate in Congress because of Biden’s immigration proposals and because the country faces a truly difficult situation at the borders. The number of apprehensions of undocumented migrants, including unaccompanied minors, has risen exponentially in a matter of weeks, putting Biden’s immigration plans and his immigration bill at risk.

Aside from the current border situation, which is related to the surge of illegal crossings, the Biden administration also faces former President Trump’s restrictive policies on the immigration system, which could have a lasting impact on multiple immigration processes and programs, as well as in immigration courts and at the borders.

Therefore, it is important for the Biden administration to act cautiously and assertively to gradually improve the immigration system without fueling the current controversy or affecting the local population and the most vulnerable immigrant communities.
