Yahoo News reports on President-Elect Biden’s announcement that he intends to nominate Alejandro Mayorkas as secretary of DHS. Mayorkas, who previously served as deputy secretary of DHS under President Obama, is the son of Cuban Jews who came to the United States as refugees in 1960, less than a year after he was born.

Word has been issued that the very first day that President-Elect Biden becomes President of the United States, that he will sign an executive order reversing Trump’s Muslim Ban. This means that the very anti-immigrant polices of Trump will be dismantled day by day by President-Elect Biden.
