Within hours of his inauguration, President Biden has already begun implementing changes on immigration regulations. Let's take a quick peek at what he is proposing:
8 Key Immigration Updates from President Biden
The first biggest highlight goes to the farm workers. These workers serve important roles to keep the whole country fed throughout the pandemic, and Biden is going to offer a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers.
Green Card holders would also be able to shorten the wait time for presuming their citizenships. More updates include:
- Provide path to citizenship for Dreamers including farm workers
- Shorten wait time for Green Card holders to gain their citizenships
- Provide path to legal status for undocumented people residing in the United States
- Extend overtime pay to all who toil in the agriculture industry
- Provide 8-year path to citizenship for millions of undocumented Americans (5 years of temporary status and 3 years of Green Card)
- Provide people who were brought to the US as children and/or adults who fled natural and human disasters immediate permanent residency
- Reverse Muslim ban which prohibits travelers from countries including Iran, Iraq, Libya, and Somalia
- Possibly provide temporary legal status to minors from Central America
What do you think about these immigration changes? I am sure there will be more coming up. Looking forward to seeing more exciting updates in the next few months!
