Dope1: Getting back on subject, since they don't want to talk about it.
What's there to talk about? You cherry-picked a single sentence from a two-month old conversation with AOC on The Daily Show which had nothing to do with "policy." Refuting your nonsense is a never ending job.
For example:
Biden's "immigration parole" is the nice name for his open border policy. The scam works like this:
*Cross the border and get caught
*Biden gives you a phone with an app and a court date of 8 years from now
*You are released into the country and go on your merry way.
No one expects any of these people to show up in 2031 for their "court hearing".
Not a single word of that is true.
Generally, parole is available to Ukrainians, Afghans, Venezuelans, and vetted nationals of Cuba, Haiti, and Nicaragua. Parolees from Cuba, Haiti, and Nicaragua must have a sponsor for financial support, must arrive by airplane, and their stay is limited to two years.
A major parole program is the federal Uniting for Ukraine initiative but since republicans in Congress tend to side with Russia, you can understand why they'd want to eliminate that program.
Parolees must apply for asylum or pursue other immigration pathways. Failing those methods, they can reapply to extend their parole before it expires.
Parole does not provide a direct path to lawful permanent residence in the U.S.
And contrary to your usual nonsense, this is not a Biden administration program: the U.S. has granted parole for decades.
