Is Immigration Reform Becoming a Bipartisan Problem?
Immigration reform in limbo again
Over the last decades, several governments have tried to promote comprehensive immigration reform in the US, which would restructure the local immigration system, enact lasting changes to existing policies, and adopt a different approach to irregular migration.
For instance, the Biden administration is currently pushing Congress to pass its comprehensive immigration overhaul, which includes, among many other things, the possibility of offering legalization to millions of immigrants residing in the US undocumented, who have become a pillar for the national economy.
However, the last time Congress passed legislation to protect eligible undocumented immigrants from deportation was in November 1986. Since then, the ideal of passing comprehensive immigration reform has sparked enormous controversy.

The American population supports path to citizenship
The controversy surrounding comprehensive reform is primarily related to the possibility of legalizing foreigners who violated local immigration law by crossing the borders without prior authorization or overstaying their residence permits.
Naturally, there is a part of the population that thinks that offering amnesty to undocumented immigrants would only encourage and increase irregular migration. However, what are the official figures regarding this discussion?
Well, in one of our most recent articles we talked about a series of polls conducted nationwide over the last year, which reveal that a high percentage of the American population supports the path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
It should be noted that the local population agrees primarily with offering amnesty to immigrants who came to the US as minors (known as Dreamers), essential workers in the health and agriculture sectors, and beneficiaries of certain deportation relief programs.

Is immigration reform now a political battle?
If the American population has supported the path to citizenship in recent polls, the question then becomes, why hasn’t Congress moved forward on immigration reform? And, shouldn’t the opinion of local citizens also be included in this decision?
According to a recent Montana Standard report, the monumental debate in Congress and inaction on immigration reform is related to a bipartisan battle that must be resolved in order to move toward lasting changes in the local immigration system.
The fact that Congress has not passed comprehensive immigration overhaul for almost 35 years is evidence that there is a gigantic hurdle with respect to this issue, which could prevent the US from welcoming international talent to overcome the current juncture, ultimately affecting the local population.
