Under President Joe Biden’s new immigration policy there will be a border crisis very soon, according to Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies for the Center for Immigration Studies.

Last week, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that in accordance with Biden’s executive orders, starting Feb. 19 the agency will begin processing people who had been forced to “remain in Mexico” under the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP). There are approximately 25,000 individuals who continue to have active cases under the MPP.
