The immigration system has had many issues but since president Biden came into office he has tried to reverse many of the policies that were implemented by Trump administration. Though he has been able to reverse some already USCIS remains highly backlogged with many cases.

At the beginning of each case, every person should have the right to know every single detail about his or her case. In a recent court ruling, the government denounced the practice of providing necessary information in multiple documents that usually may lead the person to miss court hearings.

Recently, the house passed two new bills that protect those who are non-citizens of the United Sates. The first bill is to protect individuals from being discriminated due to their religion, also known as the No Ban Act. Meaning, if a person was being banned from entry into the US, the government would require specific evidence as to why this ban was necessary against this individual.

The asylum system has always been an ongoing issue but in recent years has been an issue that many have tried to resolve. People who come the United States seeking asylum want safety and place they can call home; the last thing they want is to feel insecure and unsafe in a country where they arrived.

During 2020, President Trump made it near impossible to admit immigrants into the country. It started from travel bans to making it hard for family members to petition for green cards. Cutting the number of immigrants really began to impact our country; many visa holders who were hired to work in the US were banned from coming in which affected many companies.

When Biden came into office it was a great relief for many immigrants who were detained at the borders. When ICE finally began releasing individuals, it made a commitment to only focus on keeping those who had a criminal record and who were a possible threat to the United States.

Beginning Biden’s office takeover, he has spoken about tackling the root of the reasoning behind why many immigrants migrate to the United States illegally. He has spoken about possible finding a solution or a reform in which could benefit those who are in the states undocumented while also keeping the United States safe for all.

Recently, the US Mexico border has encountered several migrant children arriving unaccompanied at the border. Just last month in March 19,000 children were arrived at the border alone. This issue has raised a lot of concern and CBP wants to bring new staff to help these children feel welcomed.

Detention centers are very well known to have terrible conditions in which immigrants are being kept. But recently it was revealed that one detention center in particular has failed to properly follow the Covid-19 protocols.

Since the Covid-19 pandemic began back in March of 2020, many immigrants have been left out from the relief packages that the United States has distributed to Americans, those include stimulus checks, rent assistance etc.
