Jonathan Blitzer writes about President Joe Biden’s recent executive order that sharply curtails asylum for migrants at the southern U.S. border.
Last December, while top-ranking officials at the White House and the Department of Homeland Security were meeting with a small group of senators to negotiate the asylum bill, I sat down with the Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas. “We’re at a threshold moment,” he told me.
Last month, the White House moved ahead with the new executive order, which it built on the guiding premise of the Administration’s border policy: to direct migrants to seek asylum at ports of entry, which are staffed by government agents and have basic facilities for processing people, rather than to cross in places in between them.
