Karine Jean-Pierre Confirms Biden Is No Longer Considering Executive Action to Secure the Border

It would have been the toughest, fairest piece of legislation, law, if you will, if it had been — if it had been moved in the president was able to sign it into law. And that’s what’s important. The president is trying to make it very clear, no executive action would have that effect, the effect that this bipartisan negotiation would have had.”
