拜登發布21點移民計劃。
July 30, 2021
As the number of migrants at the border continues to surge, the Biden administration has drafted a 21 point plan to weigh their asylum claims more quickly and to deport those who do not qualify. Included in the plan, the administration calls for asylum officers to have full authority to rule on asylum claims for migrants crossing the border, thus allowing asylum-seekers to bypass immigration courts, which now have a backlog of more than 1.2 million cases. The White House aims to send asylum cases that do go to court to a dedicated docket, therefore making sure that they are given priority. Additionally, families seeking asylum would also have access to legal counsel, depending on Congress’ approval of a $15 million budget request for next year.
