Biden Gives Pregnant, Nursing and Postpartum Mothers a Pass - CounterPunch.org

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : He has made finishing the border wall his priority.
45% : The article describes details of Biden's new rules, namely that the new policy only applies to ICE but not Customs and Border Protection - so such "women could be apprehended at the border before being released by ICE."
44% : "Since 2016, ICE has arrested undocumented pregnant immigrants more than 4000 times," according to the New York Times on July 9.
43% : ICE will no longer target migrant women who are pregnant, nursing or within the year postpartum.
43% : Abbott, who will hopefully lose reelection in 2022, "has made border security his top issue this year," Government Executive magazine reports.
38% : Both decried the "dangerous situation" at the border, though from my perch in the peanut gallery, the danger seems to come from opportunistic politicians gobbling up funds for border "security," monies better used for rent abatement, vaccine drives, and unemployment benefits.
