☆ James Lankford Urges GOP Patience as He Tries to Solve Border ‘Rubik’s Cube’
  + stars: | 2024-01-14 | by ( Lindsay Wise | Michelle Hackman In Washington | Adolfo Flores In Oklahoma City | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Republican Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma has taken on one of Congress’s most thankless and politically risky jobs: leading negotiations to overhaul the country’s immigration laws. Democrats and Republicans agree that a fix is overdue—the last major changes were passed in 1986. Past rounds of talks have gotten nowhere because the issue is so charged and the system so legally complex that any rewrites of the law risk cascading and unintended effects. Now Lankford is one of a trio of senators taking another crack at it, as migrant apprehensions at the Southern U.S. border hit a record 250,000 a month.

House Speaker Mike Johnson describes the border situation as an unsustainable catastrophe. Photo: Drew Angerer/Getty ImagesWASHINGTON—House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) Johnson said in a letter to the White House that “supplemental Ukraine funding is dependent upon enactment of transformative change to our nation’s border security laws,” and pointed to House Republicans’ H.R. 2 immigration bill as a starting point. That bill passed the GOP-led House in May with no Democratic support and never got a vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

President Biden’s foreign-aid proposal includes money to speed up processing of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. Photo: mike blake/ReutersWASHINGTON—Senate Republicans and Democrats are headed for a showdown over the government’s power to admit immigrants into the U.S. on humanitarian grounds, one element of tougher border restrictions GOP lawmakers are demanding to win their support for President Biden’s aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. While bipartisan talks have made progress on tightening the initial screening process for migrants seeking asylum—a central demand of Republicans—a separate policy known as humanitarian parole has now emerged as a sticking point in negotiations, lawmakers said.

☆ Senators’ Top Target in Border Talks: Tighter Asylum Rules for Migrants

Overhauling the immigration system has long been one of the thorniest tasks before Congress. Photo: Go Nakamura/ReutersWASHINGTON—Tightening the initial standard immigrants must meet when applying for asylum could form the basis of a bipartisan border agreement in the Senate, where a group of lawmakers is racing to strike a deal before the end of this year that could unlock billions of dollars in aid to Ukraine. Senate Republicans have demanded a crackdown on asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border as a condition for backing President Biden’s request for emergency funding for Ukraine, part of a $106 billion proposal that also includes aid for Israel and Taiwan as well as money to bolster the immigration system. Senate Democrats have acknowledged that changes to border policy will likely be part of any deal.

Illegal border crossings have reached records over the past two years. The one-page proposal, put forward by a group of Republican senators including Sens. James Lankford (R., Okla.), Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) and Tom Cotton (R., Ark. ), represents the opening bid in negotiations with Senate Democrats and the White House, which has signaled some openness to immigration-policy changes. Biden’s request included money for border operations, but didn’t include any policy changes.

Photo: etienne laurent/ShutterstockWASHINGTON—The Biden administration is proposing major changes to the H-1B visa program for high-skilled foreign professionals, after the government found earlier this year that companies had colluded to try to increase their chances of winning a coveted visa. The proposal, published by the Department of Homeland Security in the Federal Register on Monday, would revise how the H-1B visa lottery is run.
