Biden relies on border security to happen automatically
President Biden Reluctant to Use Executive Action on Southern Border Crisis
President Joe Biden made it clear that he is not planning to use executive action to address the crisis at the southern border, stating that he is “counting on” the situation to resolve itself.
During a conversation with reporters on Monday, Biden was asked about the timing of executive action regarding the border. In response, he expressed his hope that the issue would be resolved with the assistance of Congress.
When pressed further on whether he would support measures from Congress to address the border crisis, Biden replied, “they haven’t yet.”
Biden has been attempting to shift the blame for the border crisis onto Republicans in Congress, accusing them of intentionally obstructing legislation for political gain. He has also criticized former President Donald Trump, who openly opposed the legislation that Biden negotiated with lawmakers.
Despite the increasing number of immigrants entering the country, Biden has been hesitant to utilize his executive power to implement measures to control the crisis.
While avoiding executive action or executive orders, the White House has requested $4.7 billion in funding for the Department of Homeland Security to aid in addressing the crisis.
