President Biden is on the verge of wiping out most of his predecessor’s immigration policies, with an eye toward restoring the consensus on the issue that existed in Washington before Donald Trump was in the White House.

Both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, along with over 60 senators in both parties for most of their administrations, supported legislation, commonly referred to as comprehensive immigration reform, that would legalize most of the undocumented immigrants already in the United States, increase legal immigration, and create new categories of guest workers in exchange for border security enhancements.
