President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will reportedly reinstate a parole program for migrants coming to the U.S., despite previously shutting down the program following warnings of widespread fraud.
Earlier this month, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas temporarily suspended the CHNV program following reports of fraud and abuse. The program is one of two parole pipelines created by Biden and Harris to give advance travel authorization to Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans so they can travel to the U.S. and secure parole.
At the time Mayorkas shut down the CHNV program, it had already admitted about 500,000 immigrants to the United States in less than two years.
this week, Reports from The Washington Times and The New York Times suggest Mayorkas has said he will restart the CHNV program, a move that has been criticized by House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-Tenn.).
“It is not surprising that the Biden-Harris Administration has rushed to reinstate the unlawful CHNV mass parole program, despite evidence of clear fraud in the program,” Green said.
The CHNV program, coupled with the use of the CBP One app at the Southwest border, The president and border control agents are playing a massive dummy game, encouraging inadmissible foreigners to cross the border at ports of entry rather than crossing between the two sides. [Emphasis added]
Green said the committee has been in contact with Department of Homeland Security officials about irregularities within the CHNV program and “the consequences have been severe.”
“Instead of eliminating a clearly flawed program, the State Department has allowed it to continue without rooting out the abuses or putting in place adequate safeguards to prevent exploitation by sponsors in the United States,” Green said.
Greene said the fraud problem wouldn't have happened if DHS had “stopped the importation of 30,000 denied aliens each month in the first place.”
The Biden-Harris parole pipeline also includes migrants arriving at the southern border through the CBP One mobile app, bringing the total to about 1.3 million migrants admitted into an American community — an area roughly the size of Dallas, Texas.
