The Biden Administration announced a new immigration policy earlier this week.
The policy change would allow certain U.S. citizens' spouses without legal status to apply for permanent residency and eventually citizenship without having to leave the country first. Oklahoma Senator James Lankford says this will only contribute to the current chaos at the border. Lankford says this policy will bring millions across the southern border.
Lankford was the author of a senate bill that would have made sweeping changes to immigration law. The measure garnered only two votes in the senate and failed both times.
Former Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt agreed with Lankford, calling the move by the Biden administration nothing more than an attempt to bolster his chances in November.
Schmidt is running for the U.S. House Seat in the State's Second Congressional District
