Capito presses Biden to rescind migrant amnesty order
U S Senator Shelley Moore Capito joined 14 Republicans in calling President Biden to repeal an amnesty executive order for certain unlawfully present migrants.

Capito cites border security concerns and notes arrests of eight illegal entrants linked to ISIS-K amid ongoing migration debates.
