"Biden Explores Executive Actions for Border Security Ahead of 2024 Election"

President Biden is considering using a 1952 law to restrict access to the U.S. asylum system and curb illegal crossings at the southern border, a move that could be announced within the next two weeks. This potential executive action comes as the Biden administration grapples with record levels of migrant arrivals and seeks to address the border situation ahead of the 2024 election. However, any significant restriction on asylum would face legal and operational challenges, and could be met with lawsuits.
