President Joe Biden announced yesterday that immigrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti and Venezuela will be expelled to Mexico if they enter the U.S. illegally, effective immediately. At the same time, he offered humanitarian parole for up to 30,000 people a month from those four countries if they apply online, pay for their airfare and find a financial sponsor. “Do not, do not just show up at the border,” Biden said as he announced the changes. “Stay where you are and apply legally from there.” Biden made the announcement just days before a planned visit to the southern border. The Tennessee Ledger has the story from the Associated Press.
