President Biden is currently considering granting amnesty to illegal aliens as a way to deal with the migrant crisis. Politico reported that the administration could start dolling out green cards to illegal immigrants who have long stayed inside the United States, thereby giving them amnesty to stay in the country. The plan would grant migrants who have been in the country for more than ten years access to the cancellation of the removal program, provided that they have relatives who would suffer if they were deported. Migrants could then receive a green card and a permanent residency grant if they meet the cancellation of removal requirements and an immigration judge rules in their favor.

New Census data found that the U.S.'s foreign-born or immigrant population (legal and illegal) hit a new high of 51.4 million, and 15.5 percent of the U.S. population surpassed all prior records. The foreign-born share of the U.S. population has tripled since 1970, nearly doubled since 1990, and is up 40 percent just since 2000. (Center for Immigration Studies)
