Good evening I'm

I'm on the Navas.

And I'm Jeff Bennett on the news hour.

Tonight, President Biden signs an executive order limiting the number of migrants who can seek asylum at the southern

border. Shocking election results in India where Prime Minister Modi wins a third

term but not in the landslide expected. And why some universities are returning to standardized testing

in their admissions processes.

When we go in and contextually evaluate that student,

and we see that they're in the 99th percentile of their high school

with that score that's a very meaningful figure. Welcome to the news hour.

President Biden signed an executive order today that temporarily blocks migrants

from seeking asylum when border encounters reach a certain number.

The President used the announcement to set himself apart from his predecessor and political rival, former President Donald Trump.

I will never demonize immigrants. I'll never refer to immigrants as poisoning the blood of a country.

And further, I'll never separate children from their families at the border.

I will not ban people from this country because of the religious beliefs.

I will not use the U.S. military to go into neighborhoods all across the country

to pull millions of people out of their homes and away from their families to put

detention camps in a way while waiting deportation as my predecessor says he will do if he occupies his office again.

Still the move is one of the most restrictive President Biden has taken to date to crack down

on the US-Mexico border.
