President Joe Biden is reportedly planning a migration swap with Mexico’s president that would provide hundreds of thousands of migrants legal entry into the United States.
The swap would expand a January border-management deal that traditionally trades 360,000 additional migrants for 360,000 deportations back into Mexico.
Any non-Mexican migrants who cross the border illegally will face a series of consequences including arrest, incarceration, deportation to Mexico and a possible a five-year ban from the U.S.
While the deal is not yet secured, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has reportedly been open to negotiations. The swap also depends on parole-pipelines that are allegedly illegal, according to a lawsuit filed by Republican states.
According to the Post, “Mexico is the linchpin of the plan,” because it has the power to discourage the influx of migrants whom they do not want to be seen deporting.
Dois Meissner, a top immigration official from the Clinton Administration, called the policy a "game changer" for the Biden Administration.
