[quote=Anonymous]I am a Democrat and pro-immigration, but am very conflicted about what is happening at the border. The majority of people at the border will line up/walk up to Customs and Border agents and request asylum. The majority are not running undetected across the border. After asylum officers interview them, many will be scheduled for an immigration court hearing for asylum, which will be years away. They are considered illegal in that they did not enter the US at a port of entry, yet they have a pending court date with an immigration judge to decide if they should be granted asylum or sent back to their country. Not sure how this can be fixed unless prohibiting asylum if someone does not enter at our ports of entry, but that means changing the law. I am concerned that anyone from anywhere in the world can fly into Mexico and then go to the border, especially if they “lose” their documents, claim smugglers took them, etc. I don’t see this as a Biden issue, but something every president has to deal with.[/quote]
