President Biden issued an executive order yesterday severely restricting access to asylum at the southern border.
"These actions run counter to our nation’s immigration laws and long-standing tradition of providing refuge to those fleeing persecution. By limiting humanitarian protection, we betray our values and undermine our credibility as a global leader in promoting human rights and dignity."
