Biden Considers Executive Actions to Address Migrant Crisis

TL;DR Summary
The White House is considering using executive actions to address immigration and border issues, exploring options that President Biden could deploy on his own without congressional approval. The administration is facing pressure on immigration and the border, with plans to potentially utilize provisions of federal immigration law, including Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which gives the president broad leeway to block entry of certain immigrants into the United States. However, the plans are not finalized, and it's uncertain how any such executive actions would withstand legal challenges.
