This news comes amid pressures from Democratic lawmakers and activists seeking protections for irregular immigrants in the country.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Context of the Proposal<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There has recently been an increase in concern among voters about immigration, a concern that has been particularly magnified by the Republican party. The political confrontation intensifies as the November 5 elections approach, in which Biden will face Donald Trump. Biden&#8217;s immigration policies, seen as less restrictive by some, have been a point of criticism by Trump, who claims they have led to an increase in illegal immigration.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Details of the Measure<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The White House is exploring the possibility of granting temporary legal status and work permits to illegal immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens. Although no measure has been finalized yet, this action could represent a significant change in the way the government treats irregular immigrants, providing them with a path to legality and, potentially, citizenship.<\/p>\n<p>This consideration has been influenced by the pressure from a group of 86 Democrats who last year urged Biden and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to protect the spouses of U.S. citizens and to create a family reunification process for those outside the country.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Reactions and Criticisms<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The possibility of adopting executive measures to block the entry of immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border has sparked criticism from some sectors of the Democratic party and immigrant advocates. The proposal to grant &#8220;parole in place&#8221; (a temporary stay permit) for the spouses of U.S. citizens is seen as an effort to find a balance between border security and the protection of immigrants&#8217; human rights.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Potential Impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If implemented, this measure could affect approximately 1.1 million irregular immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens, according to data from the organization\u00a0<a title=\"smartCard-inline\" href=\"http:\/\/fwd.us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer ugc\">http:\/\/FWD.us<\/a>\u00a0. The possibility of obtaining work permits and a path to citizenship could have a significant impact on the lives of many families and on the country&#8217;s economy.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As the White House weighs this measure, the nation watches closely. Immigration continues to be a central topic in American politics, and the decisions made in the coming months could define the future of thousands of families and the direction of the country in terms of immigration policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington, April 22, 2024\u00a0\u2014 In an effort to address one of the most sensitive and divisive issues in American politics, President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration is studying measures to offer support to illegal immigrants married to U.S. citizens.
