Framework; progress in our cooperation on cybersecurity including for | ||
undersea cables, next steps toward building secure and resilient | ||

together to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific, and combatting | ||

sub-region. The two leaders reaffirmed the importance of maintaining | ||
peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific – especially in the South China | ||
Sea. President Biden also emphasized the United States’ commitment to | ||
ASEAN centrality and respect for human rights. | ||

title: "Remarks as Prepared for Delivery by Homeland Security Advisor Dr. Liz Sherwood-Randall\ | ||
\ at the Fourth Ministerial Meeting on the Los Angeles Declaration on Migration\ | ||
\ and Protection | New York,\_NY" | ||
--- | ||
|
||
On behalf of President Biden, I want to thank each of you for being here | ||
today. | ||
|
||
The Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection embodies our | ||
shared values and our commitment to work together to elevate the welfare | ||
and security of our entire hemisphere. As I listened to each of your | ||
remarks, I reflected on how much we have accomplished since your leaders | ||
joined President Biden on the podium in Los Angeles a little more than | ||
two years ago. | ||
|
||
We have taken key actions to disrupt the smuggling networks that exploit | ||
vulnerable migrants through **coordinated enforcement efforts**. | ||
|
||
We have **expanded** lawful pathways as an alternative to the risks | ||
inherent in irregular migration. | ||
|
||
And collectively, we have fostered the long-term **stabilization and | ||
integration** of migrants. | ||
|
||
I will provide some details to illustrate more vividly what we have done | ||
on each of these three pillars of the Los Angeles Declaration. | ||
|
||
**Enforcement** | ||
|
||
Together, we are using our immigration and law enforcement tools to | ||
deter irregular migration and disrupt transnational criminal | ||
organizations that put migrants’ lives at risk for profit. | ||
|
||
We are encouraged by how many countries have taken concrete actions to | ||
increase enforcement, including by putting in place strong visa | ||
requirements and increasing information sharing. We know this is a | ||
challenge that can only be met if we work together. | ||
|
||
And we have: | ||
|
||
- Adopted new rules and processes to strengthen the consequences in | ||
place at our border, including refined procedures announced by | ||
President Biden on June 4. | ||
|
||
<!-- --> | ||
|
||
- Increased biometric information sharing across the region to | ||
identify bad actors before they enter any of our borders; | ||
- Imposed visa restrictions and financial sanctions, and prosecuted | ||
human smugglers; | ||
|
||
So many of these efforts have been done in close coordination with all | ||
of you. | ||
|
||
**Lawful Pathways** | ||
|
||
The Biden-Harris Administration has also expanded lawful pathways to | ||
encourage migrants to apply to come to the United States from their home | ||
countries rather than making the dangerous journey to our border. | ||
|
||
That is why we launched the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, Venezuelan | ||
parole process – with notable results. | ||
|
||
We are also on track to welcome the largest number of refugees in three | ||
decades. This would not have been possible without the Safe Mobility | ||
Initiative and our partnership with Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, and | ||
Ecuador. | ||
|
||
As part of today’s funding announcement, we are providing an additional | ||
$83 million to help resettle more refugees and refer migrants to | ||
additional pathways as well, including temporary labor opportunities in | ||
the United States and other countries. | ||
|
||
**Stabilization and Integration** | ||
|
||
And finally, I want to join Secretary Blinken in applauding the | ||
pioneering and generous policies that are enabling the **stabilization | ||
and integration of** migrants. | ||
|
||
This is a story that I think will be told for years to come: how Latin | ||
America rallied together in the face of the historic displacement of 8 | ||
million people from Venezuela and rose up to become a model for the | ||
world of how to respond to this kind of mass migration with pragmatism | ||
and humanity. | ||
|
||
We applaud so many of the countries represented here for opening your | ||
doors to displaced migrants and giving them hope for their future, | ||
enabling them to obtain formal employment, access basic social services, | ||
and put their kids in school. | ||
|
||
With today’s announcements, over half of the Los Angeles Declaration | ||
countries have implemented migrant regularization policies, collectively | ||
providing legal status to 4.4 million mostly Venezuelan migrants. | ||
|
||
The United States is proud to support these efforts. As part of today’s | ||
$686 million funding announcement by Secretary of State Blinken, the | ||
United States will assist partner countries as you implement | ||
regularization programs and successfully integrate newcomers. In | ||
addition, we will continue to provide lifesaving humanitarian assistance | ||
to help the most vulnerable Venezuelans, both inside Venezuela and | ||
throughout the region. | ||
|
||
**Closing** | ||
|
||
For President Biden, the Los Angeles Declaration was never just a piece | ||
of paper that each country signed; it was a call to action. | ||
|
||
And I am confident that with our continued commitment to the | ||
Declaration, including the establishment of an enduring Secretariat with | ||
Colombia as our first Country Chair, we will continue showing the world | ||
that regional collaboration can effectively and humanely address the | ||
migratory challenges that we face in our Hemisphere. | ||
|
||
Thank you. |
