Joe Biden Tells Mexican President He Will Reverse Trump Administration's 'Draconian' Immigration Policies
Per
Fox News, the White House told the press that Biden and Lopez Obrador held the discussion in order to "review bilateral cooperation on a range of bilateral and regional issues, particularly regional migration."
Unlike his predecessor Donald Trump, the White House said, Biden will try to reduce the influx of illegal immigrants from Latin America by addressing the underlying causes of migration and reforming asylum application procedures.
"The president outlined his plan to reduce migration by addressing its root causes, increasing resettlement capacity and lawful alternative immigration pathways, improving processing at the border to adjudicate requests for asylum, and reversing the previous administration's draconian immigration policies."During the 2020 campaign, Biden repeatedly said that he would seek to undo and reverse Trump's immigration policies.
