A proposal to vaccinate migrants that was a source of tension inside the White House last year is back on the table as the Biden administration tries to change the way the United States deals with migrants at the southern border
In August, when a report on the proposal emerged, top White House officials, including chief of staff Ron Klain, tried to seek reassurance that in fact the plan wasn't happening.Klain and Susan Rice, one of President Joe Biden's top aides, shot down the proposal -- intended to address public health concerns -- because they thought it would encourage more people to come to the US, sources tell CNN.
A senior administration official told CNN that officials are now weighing proposals to chart a new path on the US-Mexico border, focusing on the use of new technologies to make asylum more accessible and evaluating models used by the United Nations to receive migrants. But that remains contingent on the end of a Trump-era public health order that has effectively barred migrants from seeking asylum -- an authority the Biden Justice Department defended in court Wednesday.
