WASHINGTON (AP) � President-elect Joe Biden plans to unveil a sweeping immigration bill on Day One of his administration.

A person granted anonymity to discuss the legislation says it would provide an eight-year path to citizenship for an estimated 11 million people living in the U.S. without legal status.

It’s a massive reversal from the Trump administration’s harsh immigration policies.

The legislation puts Biden on track to deliver on a major campaign promise after four years of President Donald Trump’s restrictive policies.

But it does not include beefed-up border security, which puts passage in Congress in doubt.
