A group of swing state Democrats, all up for re-election in 2024, are staying silent as President Joe Biden considers implementing an enforcement policy at the United States-Mexico border that they once opposed under former President Trump.
Last month, reports circulated that Biden is considering reviving a Trump-era policy that saw adult border crossers detained along with the migrant children they arrive with.
In 2018, when the Trump administration was proposing a federal regulation to allow for indefinite detention of adult border crossers and the migrant children they arrive with, Sens. Bob Casey (D-PA), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), and Sherrod Brown (D-OH) joined other Senate Democrats to denounce the practice.
“This proposed rule is an embarrassment to our great nation and the American people,” the Senate Democrats wrote of the Trump rule, also calling it “morally wrong” and “inconsistent with fundamental values.”
