as he tackles a key political problem


Biden administration is quickly invoking an authority to shut off accessto asylum for migrants who cross the US-Mexico border illegally, a significant attempt by President Joe Biden to address head on one of his biggest political vulnerabilities.


Biden unveiled the sweeping executive action Tuesday afternoon at the White House, attempting to use executive action to affect the situation on the border after a bipartisan measure failed earlier this year.


The action marks the administration’s most dramatic move on the US southern border as Biden tries to gain the upper hand on immigration just weeks from the first presidential debate– by using the same authority former President Donald rump tried to use in office.



 The White House announced the action would take effect at midnight.
