#shorts Amid worst border crisis on record, Jean-Pierre claims it’s “safe,” “orderly,” “humane” at border.
2/23/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “The administration proposed a rule this week that would make migrants ineligible for asylum if they cross the southern border without first asking for refuge in a third country. At least generally speaking, it’s kind of similar to a Trump-era rule. Administration officials told reporters on a call this week it wasn’t their first or separate — second preference to do it this way. Is this rule a recognition that the administration’s early border strategy just isn’t working? And is it realistic that President Biden’s campaign promises to end all Trump-era immigration restrictions — was that unrealistic?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: … Look, on day one, the President put forward a comprehensive immigration — immigration reform proposal. And he — that’s showing that the President was taking this very seriously. And the way that we see this is Congress needs to act. And what was happening currently, right now, is Congress is not acting. So what you’re seeing from the Department of Homeland Security is they are using the tools that is being presented to them so that we can deal with the sit- — with this situation and do it in a safe and oder- — orderly and humane way.
