Reversal of Trump Immigration Policy Will ‘Take Time’

“Top advisers to President-elect Joe Biden said Tuesday they will not immediately roll back asylum restrictions at the Mexican border and other Trump immigration policies, tamping down expectations for the kind of swift reversals Biden promised on the campaign trail,” the Washington Post reports.

“Speaking to reporters on a conference call, several members of the Biden transition team said the incoming administration would ‘need time’ to undo ‘damage’ to the U.S. immigration system and border enforcement policies that have severely limited the ability of asylum seekers to qualify for humanitarian protection.”
