Biden administration weighs plan to keep asylum-seeking migrants in Texas pending review
- The Biden administration is considering a plan to require migrant families to remain in Texas while undergoing asylum screening.
- The proposal would monitor families' locations through GPS tracking and facilitate quick deportation of those who fail initial screening.
- The plan aims to address rising migrant crossings but faces potential opposition from advocates and officials in border states.
- Recent months have seen increases in migrant families at the southern border, prompting criticism of the administration.
- Texas Gov. Abbott has threatened increased bussing of migrants if the plan goes forward.
