Some business owners were angered by President Biden's decision to grant hundreds of thousands of work permits to illegal immigrants, according to a new report. Last September, The Biden administration announced that it would be offering hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan migrants and thousands of Afghan nationals already in the U.S. – including those in the country illegally – work permits and protections from deportations, amid a historic surge at the southern border.
Immigrants who've been working in the U.S. for years also told the paper they were upset about the move. 'For those of us here a long time trying to do everything right, it’s just not fair that we are forgotten,' Juan, whose immigration status was not revealed, said in the report. Many Latino voters don't agree with Biden helping new arrivals over immigrants who've come here legally or worked in the U.S.
Biden is also getting pressured from sanctuary city leaders and immigration activists who want his administration to authorize work permits to everyone who's in the country illegally. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and New York City Mayor Eric Adams have urged DHS to extend existing work permits for illegal immigrants, arguing that thousands will lose their jobs, businesses will suffer and districts will find it harder to cater to new asylum seekers.
