Description

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.
