Joe Biden to build more US border wall using Trump-era funds
India TodayPresident Joe Biden's administration said on Thursday it will add sections to a border wall to stave off record migrant crossings from Mexico, carrying forward a signature policy of former President Donald Trump. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement that there was "no new Administration policy with respect to border walls. The White House in a statement said it has taken a different approach to try to fix the "broken immigration system" they said Biden "inherited," including increasing legal pathways for migrants and investing in border security technology. Biden initially promised to roll back many of Trump's immigration policies, but kept in place a COVID-era public health order known as Title 42, which allowed border agents to expel migrants to Mexico without a chance to seek asylum.
