WASHINGTON, Feb. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The long-awaited 'border security' agreement negotiated by the Senate Working Group would bring neither border security nor relief from the unprecedented wave of illegal immigration that began the day President Biden took office, charged the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). Rather, the proposal would ratify ongoing illegal immigration at historically high levels.

Key Points: 
  • The Senate plan would sanction illegal immigration levels of up to 1,825,000 a year – which is beyond crisis levels.
  • Codifies the Biden Administration asylum rule allowing asylum officers – instead of immigration judges – to decide the merits of asylum cases.
  • Directs $1.4 billion to the Shelter and Services Program (SSP), which awards grants to nongovernmental organizations that facilitate illegal immigration.
  • "The Senate plan is nothing more than a capitulation to mass illegal immigration, rather than a credible plan to regain control of our borders and immigration system," Stein charged.
