Administration Faces ‘Massive Logistical Undertaking’ in Afghanistan

According to this article on Government Executive, by ERIC KATZ

“The Biden administration is looking to surge resources to its efforts to evacuate U.S. citizens and Afghan nationals who supported the government, facing a tight timeline and difficult circumstances exacerbated by operational neglect in recent months and years.

The government faces a major challenge to repatriate Americans in Afghanistan and process local citizens in the Special Immigrant Visa or other programs before the Aug. 31 deadline when the military is currently planning its complete departure. The State Department has temporarily paused bringing home its civilian staff, leaving behind a “core diplomatic presence” at the Kabul airport to help complete the evacuation. With 11,000 self-identified Afghans in the pipeline and potentially tens of thousands more joining U.S. citizens in seeking immediate departure, the Defense Department said on Tuesday it is increasing its capacity to airlift up to 9,000 people per day out of the country.”

“WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans for months have railed against the Biden administration’s handling of the U.S. border with Mexico, holding hearings, visiting border communities and promising to advance legislation to clamp down on illegal immigration and drug trafficking.

But so far, they have failed to unify behind a plan, delaying efforts to pass legislation.

Now they are hoping to change that. Republicans on Wednesday jump-started work on an immigration and border enforcement package that would remake immigration law to make it more difficult to apply for asylum and easier for the federal government to stop migrants from entering the U.S. It combines proposals from a number of conservative hardliners into a single bill.”

Published

According to this article on Politico, by Myah Ward

“President Joe Biden’s immigration problem isn’t just about policy. It’s that he’s not talking about the issue enough, voters say in a new survey from a Democratic polling firm.

Fifty-eight percent of voters in seven key Electoral College battleground states disapprove of how the president is handling immigration, compared with 32 percent who approve, according to a new swing-state poll from Global Strategy Group first shared with POLITICO.
