Fact Check: Joe Biden Falsely Claims Foreign Nationals Fleeing Violence Are ‘Entitled to Asylum’ in America
John Binder31 Jul 2019
Former Vice President Joe Biden falsely claimed that adult border crossers arriving at the United States-Mexico border who claim to be fleeing violence in Central America are “entitled to asylum†in America.
During CNN’s 2020 Democrat presidential primary debate, Biden claimed that adult border crossers who are claiming to be fleeing violence in Central America are “entitled to asylum†under federal law.
Foreign nationals claiming to be fleeing violence, though, are not entitled to asylum under current federal law, as Breitbart News has noted.
