Almost immediately after Joe Biden walked into the Oval Office on his first day as president, he began rolling back his predecessor’s immigration policies, which he'd assailed throughout the 2020 campaign as inhumane. A lot has changed in three years. Biden now sounds increasingly like ex-President Donald Trump, pressing Congress for asylum restrictions that would've been unthinkable when he took office. Biden is doing it under pressure not just from Republicans but from fellow Democrats, including elected officials in cities thousands of miles from the U.S.-Mexico border who are feeling the effects of asylum seekers arriving in record numbers. The influx has strained social services in cities including New York, Chicago and Denver.
