Biden offers path to citizenship to spouses of US citizens

President Joe Biden will announce a program offering a pathway to citizenship for hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens and have lived in the country for at least 10 years. Around 500,000 spouses and 50,000 children under 21 are expected to be eligible for this large-scale legalization effort, which contrasts sharply with former President Donald Trump’s plans for mass deportations. The move aims to reinforce Biden’s stance on a more humane immigration system.
