This seems to be what Biden wanted. In any case, he has been implementing programs to let undocumented migrants without entry documents into the country through ports of entry so they won't be included on monthly apprehensions of illegal crossers, such as his humanitarian parole program for up to 30,000 migrants a month and his program for setting up asylum meetings via mobile phone from outside of the country. In other words, he will continue to let millions of undocumented migrants into the country, but their numbers will be hidden by brining many of them in through his humanitarian parole type programs.

When Obama was asked to give lawful status and work authorization to undocumented migrants at the beginning of his presidency, he said he was a president, not a king, and therefore had to follow the law. That changed when he needed support from immigration groups to be elected for a second term. Biden decided to put a crown on his head at the beginning of his presidency. They have done terrible harm to the constitutions separation of powers provisions and its take care clause, among others.
