Following a recent sweeping executive order considered to be one of the harshest immigration policies by a Democratic president in recent history, President Biden is once again taking his focus to immigration, this time changing the landscape for undocumented spouses of American citizens.
Under a newly announced policy, some 500,000 undocumented spouses will be shielded from deportation and given a pathway to citizenship, as well as the ability to work legally in the United States. Experts consider it to be one of the most significant presidential actions to protect immigrants in more than a decade.
