Immigration reform
Joe Biden promised to abolish “from the first day” of his mandate the immigration decree issued by Donald Trump, which prohibits the entry of citizens of several countries, most of them Muslims, and that his opponents consider an Islamophobic measure.
Former Vice President Barack Obama also announced that he would ask Congress to pass a law against racist crimes.
