President Joe Biden is set to unveil a new policy aimed at shielding over 500,000 undocumented spouses of US citizens from deportation. The initiative, targeting those residing in the US for a decade or more, allows them to legally work and apply for permanent residency. It also benefits 50,000 young individuals under 21 whose parents are American citizens. This move, described as the most significant since DACA in 2012, follows recent executive actions to manage border crossings. Critics argue against what they deem an overreach of presidential power, while supporters view it as a step towards immigration reform.
