In his last State of the Union address before the general election, President Joe Biden chided Republicans for stalling efforts to pass legislation on immigration reform.

“Get this bill done. We need to act now,” Biden said, adding that likely Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump — whom Biden did not name — has discouraged Congress from making progress on an immigration deal during the presidential campaign.

Biden said he would not demonize immigrants or separate families. He also feigned disappointment when Republicans booed the bipartisan immigration bill his administration had pushed forward to “tackle the backload” of immigration cases “so they can resolve cases in six months instead of six years now.”
