President Joe Biden has already announced that he will make legal status for immigrants a priority during the first day of his administration. President Biden will ask Congress to extend permanent residency protections to many immigrants in the United States. By offering legal status to the estimated 11 million immigrants who are currently living and working in the United States without documentation, the Biden administration can provide added help for families who may have experienced harsh enforcement tactics by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other Trump immigration agencies.
A New Era of Compassion and Cooperation
By offering a pathway to permanent residency and to citizenship for families and individuals who have lived and worked here peacefully for years, President Biden is effectively announcing the end of some of the harshest and most inequitable practices of the previous administration. This will provide added hope and help for recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and for those who are seeking asylum in the United States after fleeing dangerous and deadly conditions in their home countries. The Biden administration is expected to offer added protections for these individuals and families in the next few months.
