Compare/Contrast: What and How the Biden Administration Has Undone Trump’s Past Immigration Policies

Washington, DC -- Today, as Texas residents grow concerned over both rising temperatures threatening their power grid and Republican legislators undermining their voting rights, former President Donald Trump and Texas Governor Greg Abbott are carrying out another political stunt at the border - once again reviving the GOP playbook of the past that lost Republicans critical seats in 2018 and 2020.

In the last few weeks, the Texas governor along with other Republican leaders, including Senator Ted Cruz and Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis who recently deployed state law officers to the border, have continued to weaponize the border and demonize migrants to undermine President Biden’s progress to overhaul Trump’s cruel immigration policies and build a functioning immigration system.

Ahead of their visit to the border, the Immigration Hub takes a look back and forward at what the Biden administration has done to undo the damage.
