"Biden's Border Stand: Vowing to Take Tougher Measures Without Need for New Laws"

President Biden is embracing tougher border measures, including the potential shutdown of the US-Mexico border, in response to increasing migration, marking a shift from his earlier stance. This move is seen as an attempt to fend off attacks from former President Trump and Republicans on immigration policy ahead of the election. However, Biden's shift has sparked criticism from immigrant advocates and progressives, who argue that the proposed measures will cause chaos and human suffering. The ongoing negotiations in the Senate over a potential border deal have also raised frustrations and concerns among Democrats, with some warning of progressive backlash against the administration.

Border Negotiations: Congressional Hispanic Caucus Expresses Frustrations in Meeting with White House

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) expressed their frustrations during a Zoom meeting with White House officials, including Chief of Staff Jeff Zients and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, over concerns that the administration would agree to an immigration deal that they found unacceptable. The CHC requested the meeting to weigh in before the deal was finalized, as they felt the White House was not listening to their concerns. The White House assured the CHC that progress had been made on a framework but acknowledged that important policy decisions were still being worked through. Democrats and Republicans remain far apart on key issues, including refugee admissions, migrant detention, and presidential powers to expel migrants. The Senate has delayed its holiday recess to continue negotiations, while the House has left until the new year.
