TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Joe Biden is eager for Congress to move forward to fix the broken immigration system, for which he has already sent in a legislation, the White House said on Wednesday.
The president believes that there should be faster processing, that our immigration system is broken at many levels and of the system and that he is eager for Congress to move forward with action there, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters at her daily news conference.
She was responding to a question on the recent protest by Indian-American doctors who are seeking the elimination of the existing per country quota for Green Card, as a result of which the backlog for Indians now run into several decades.
Responding to another question on the inordinate delay in the issuance of employment authorisation card to H4 and L2 visa holders, a significant number of whom are Indian women, Psaki said that part of the reason the administration went to push for action on immigration on the Hill is to move forward with expediting the processing and doing that on several levels, including a number of the visas. So, that’s part of the reason why we think that’s such an important piece to move forward, Psaki said.
