Biden Must go Beyond Trump’s Immigration Policies
Former President Trump’s ideals regarding immigration
Former President Donald Trump (2017-2021) showed the world that it is possible to reshape the immigration system based on political ideals and hardly verifiable opinions. The Trump administration increased restrictions and limitations on all kinds of immigration processes, using anti-immigration rhetoric, which condemned, generalized, and judged foreigners.
In fact, under the previous administration, the number of immigrants entering the US shrank drastically. Former President Trump and his team also tried to hinder humanitarian programs for vulnerable populations, reduce viable alternatives for foreign workers, use the health emergency to curb immigration almost completely, and blame immigrants for crime and unemployment rates, a premise that has been contradicted multiple times.
Thus, over the past four years, we have seen how far the executive branch and persistent actions of an administration that does not support immigration can go. Now that President Joe Biden is leading the current administration of the US, immigrant rights advocates and activist groups, who were on the front line in the battle against Trump’s immigration restrictions, are hoping his team will use the same executive power to recreate the immigration system and implement more humane policies.

Biden’s intention to remove Trump’s restrictions on immigration
President Biden took office on January 20, 2021, and, in a little over a month, he has been able to remove several restrictions, rules and limitations that the Trump administration implemented over four years on immigration.
Therefore, that shows that the Biden administration has the ability to promote comprehensive immigration reform by making assertive decisions and acting wisely on existing policies to gradually improve the immigration system, which is its goal.

The Biden administration must restructure the entire immigration system
If the Trump administration used every tool at its disposal to substantially narrow alternatives available to foreigners, from highly qualified workers to immigrants in need of international assistance, despite controversy and actions of opposition groups, then, what could an administration with more welcoming and humane ideals like Biden’s do?
So far, the Biden administration has focused on revoking and rescinding Trump’s policies. However, it is also essential for his team to evaluate the possibility of acting promptly on other areas of the immigration system in order to expand alternatives available to foreign workers and offer protection to the most vulnerable immigrant populations.
According to a recent report by The Guardian, “Biden must rethink the US migration system,” which will also be possible with the support of American citizens who voted for his administration and hope that he will reform the entire immigration sector.
