June 18, 2024: Inside Biden’s big immigration announcement

Release Date:

Twelve years after former President Barack Obama passed DACA, and just a few weeks after President Joe Biden announced a harsh crackdown at the U.S.-Mexico border, Biden is slated to make a major announcement today that takes the opposite approach. The parole-in-place program will allow the spouses of U.S. citizens who have lived in the country for at least 10 years to obtain work permits. A second policy will make certain DACA recipients and dreamers eligible for work visas and expedite the process of obtaining them. Will it strike a much-needed balance for the Biden campaign as it continues to struggle with immigration as a campaign issue? White House reporter Myah Ward joins Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza to discuss. Plus, the primary races to watch in Virginia and Oklahoma, and the rest of the news you need to know today.
