Some Democrats and advocates are worried that President Joe Biden is hurting himself with voters who care deeply about immigrant rights by leaning too heavily into border security.
With the election closing in, lawmakers and immigrant rights advocates fear Biden is running out of time to reassure voters concerned about his crackdown on the border. The president is expected to soon announce new measures to protect some undocumented immigrants as a follow-up on the asylum restrictions that incensed immigrant advocacy groups.
And they had better be good in order to present a clear contrast with former President Donald Trump, Democrats warned.
