US President Joe Biden is expected to sign a sweeping new border measure on Tuesday that would allow authorities to quickly deport or send back to Mexico migrants caught crossing the southwest border if illegal entries surpass a certain level, according to two sources with knowledge of the move.
The restrictions are not expected to apply to unaccompanied minors. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Biden took office in 2021 vowing to reverse some of Trump’s restrictive policies but grappled with record levels of migrants caught crossing illegally. Trump has criticised Biden for rolling back his policies and vowed a wide-ranging crackdown if reelected.
Trump himself became the first US president to be convicted of a crime on Thursday when a New York jury found him guilty of falsifying documents to cover up a payment to silence a porn star ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
