The executive order, which relies on a 1944 public health statute, has turned away tens of thousands of people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Trump is re-elected, some observers believe his immigration adviser Stephen Miller has \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/Haleaziz/status/1310983880187412480\">a raft of executive orders\u003c/a> drafted to further restrict immigration, including policies that may have been considered too extreme for a candidate for re-election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden’s \u003ca href=\"https://joebiden.com/immigration/#\">immigration plan\u003c/a>, by contrast, proposes to:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Reform temporary work visas to better protect U.S. and foreign workers;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Expand protections for undocumented immigrants who report labor violations;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Restore DACA protections and propose a permanent path to citizenship for Dreamers;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Return to Obama-era enforcement priorities that target serious convicted criminals for deportation;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Increase oversight and professional standards for immigration detention, and end the use of private prisons;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Invest in immigrant integration efforts, including naturalization and English instruction;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Double the number of immigration judges to tackle the 1 million-case backlog in immigration courts;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>And address the root causes of migration by fostering economic development and the rule of law in Central American countries.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Some of Biden’s immigration proposals — most notably, creating a path to citizenship for the country’s roughly 11 million undocumented immigrants — will require congressional action, which isn’t likely unless Democrats regain control of the U.S. Senate.

During a 2016 campaign event in Miami, he said \"the Haitian people deserve better\" and told the audience of Haitian-Americans he wanted to \"be your greatest champion, and I will be your champion.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agreement that Durbin and Sen.

But she added, \"We haven't quite gotten there, but we feel like we're close.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Underscoring the pitfalls facing the effort, other Republicans also undercut the significance of the deal the half-dozen senators hoped to sell to Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"How do six people bind the other 94 in the Senate?

Trump ended the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program last year but has given Congress until March 5 to find a way to keep it alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal agencies will run out of money and have to shut down if lawmakers don't pass legislation extending their financing by Jan. 19. Some Democrats are threatening to withhold their votes -- which Republicans will need to push that legislation through Congress -- unless an immigration accord is reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cornyn said the real work for a bipartisan immigration deal will be achieved by a group of four leading lawmakers -- the No. 2 Republicans and Democrats in both the House and Senate. That group met for the first time this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The immigration effort seemed to receive a boost Tuesday when Trump met with two dozen lawmakers and agreed to seek a bipartisan way to resuscitate the program. The group agreed to also include provisions strengthening security -- which for Trump means building parts of a wall along the border with Mexico -- curbing immigrants' relatives from coming here and restricting the visa lottery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also in Thursday's Oval Office meeting were House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and two conservative lawmakers who have taken a hard line on immigration: Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Republican with knowledge of Thursday's meeting said the White House hastily invited Cotton to join the immigration discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The American people don't want that style of immigration reform,\" Cotton told reporters about the bipartisan senators' offer. \"They certainly don't want this pine needle of a proposal that was on the table today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any immigration deal would face hurdles winning congressional approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Democrats would oppose providing substantial sums for Trump's campaign promise to build a wall along the border with Mexico. Many Latino and liberal members of the party oppose steps toward curtailing immigration such as ending the visa lottery and restricting the relatives that legal immigrants could bring to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among Republicans, some conservatives are insisting on going further than the steps that Trump has suggested.

They required anonymity because the agreement is not yet public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's request covers 74 miles of border wall as part of a 10-year, $18 billion proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, including Durbin, had long vowed they would not fund the wall but are accepting the opening request as part of a broader plan that protects from deportation about 800,000 younger immigrants brought to the country as children and now here illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal also includes restrictions on rules allowing immigrants to bring some relatives to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an afternoon of drama and confusing developments, three other GOP lawmakers -- including two hard-liners on immigration -- were also in Trump's office for Thursday's meeting, a development sources said Durbin and Graham did not expect. It was unclear why the three Republicans were there, and the session did not produce the results the two senators were hoping for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There has not been a deal reached yet,\" said White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders. But she added, \"We haven't quite gotten there, but we feel like we're close.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Underscoring the pitfalls facing the effort, other Republicans also undercut the significance of the deal the half-dozen senators hoped to sell to Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"How do six people bind the other 94 in the Senate? I don't get that,\" said No. 2 Senate Republican John Cornyn of Texas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cornyn said the six lawmakers were hoping for a deal and \"everyone would fall in line. The president made it clear to me on the phone less than an hour ago that he wasn't going to do that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The six senators have been meeting for months to find a way to revive protections for young immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children and are here illegally. Trump ended the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program last year but has given Congress until March 5 to find a way to keep it alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal agencies will run out of money and have to shut down if lawmakers don't pass legislation extending their financing by Jan. 19. Some Democrats are threatening to withhold their votes -- which Republicans will need to push that legislation through Congress -- unless an immigration accord is reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cornyn said the real work for a bipartisan immigration deal will be achieved by a group of four leading lawmakers -- the No. 2 Republicans and Democrats in both the House and Senate. That group met for the first time this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The immigration effort seemed to receive a boost Tuesday when Trump met with two dozen lawmakers and agreed to seek a bipartisan way to resuscitate the program. The group agreed to also include provisions strengthening security -- which for Trump means building parts of a wall along the border with Mexico -- curbing immigrants' relatives from coming here and restricting the visa lottery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also in Thursday's Oval Office meeting were House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and two conservative lawmakers who have taken a hard line on immigration: Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Republican with knowledge of Thursday's meeting said the White House hastily invited Cotton to join the immigration discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The American people don't want that style of immigration reform,\" Cotton told reporters about the bipartisan senators' offer. \"They certainly don't want this pine needle of a proposal that was on the table today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any immigration deal would face hurdles winning congressional approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Democrats would oppose providing substantial sums for Trump's campaign promise to build a wall along the border with Mexico. Many Latino and liberal members of the party oppose steps toward curtailing immigration such as ending the visa lottery and restricting the relatives that legal immigrants could bring to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among Republicans, some conservatives are insisting on going further than the steps that Trump has suggested. They want to reduce legal immigration, require employers to verify workers' citizenship and block federal grants to so-called sanctuary cities that hinder federal anti-immigrant efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press writers Jill Colvin, Andrew Taylor, Kevin Freking and Matthew Daly contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11641565/trump-why-allow-immigrants-from-shithole-countries","authors":["byline_news_11641565"],"programs":["news_6944","news_72"],"categories":["news_1169","news_8","news_13"],"tags":["news_1323","news_22361"],"featImg":"news_11641568","label":"source_news_11641565"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
