Two social welfare programs for immigrants created by President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are also secretly acting as deportation shields, interim staff said in a shocking statement. report A proposal from the House Judiciary Committee.
The report details the administration’s Young Adult Case Management Program (YACMP) and Case Management Pilot Program (CMPP), “both of which help ensure that undocumented immigrants receive social services after they are released into the United States.”

In particular, the Biden administration has sought to transform the Department of Homeland Security’s Alternatives to Detention (ATD) — designed to GPS track and monitor immigrants in deportation proceedings but not in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody — into a social services system that provides cultural orientation, legal advice, and mental health resources while connecting immigrants to taxpayer-funded programs such as food stamps and Medicaid.
Meanwhile, ATD’s Intensive Surveillance Appearance Program (ISAP) is using facial and voice recognition technology and GPS tracking to track immigrants who are not being held in ICE custody. The Heritage Foundation previously reported I got it. If an immigrant remained in ISAP throughout the entire course of deportation proceedings, ISAP would be approximately 98 percent effective.
With YACMP and CMPP, the Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security ensured that migrants were not enrolled in ISAP and were not monitored or tracked while living in the U.S. awaiting their deportation hearings.
As of February, over 6,500 immigrants were enrolled in YACMP, with only four having been deported from the U.S. and 14 having been voluntarily deported. This indicates that less than 0.3% of immigrants enrolled in YACMP have been deported from the U.S., even though hundreds of them did not comply with the program.

Similarly, CMPP has approximately 340 migrants registered with it, including approximately 100 adult solo border crossers. As of February, no migrants registered with CMPP had been deported from the United States.
The House Judiciary Committee and critics point to a little-known bureaucrat, Clare Trickler McNulty, as the architect of transforming ATD from an enforcement tool into a social welfare slush fund.

“Claire Trickler McNulty is one of Alejandro Mayorkas’ most dangerous minions, lurking in the shadows as part of a concerted effort to undermine immigration enforcement,” RJ Howman, director of the National Center for Immigration Enforcement (NICE), told Breitbart News.
Trickler McNulty joined the Biden administration in January 2021 as a senior official in the ICE Office of Detention Policy and Planning.
Under Mayorkas’s direction, the Department of Homeland Security renamed the office the Office of Immigration Program Evaluation (OIPE). Trickler McNulty served as deputy director of the office until April of this year, when she left for a six-month stint as senior adviser to the director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Trickler-McNulty’s departure from OIPE (now closed) came just weeks after the House Judiciary Committee asked her to appear before the committee for a recorded interview as part of increased oversight of her office.
Trickler-McNulty will return to ICE after her USCIS job ends later this year.
“If it was an extreme decision or program at ICE, her fingerprints were there,” Howman said. “The fact that she would be reinstated to ICE when her program evaluation office was rightfully abolished is extremely disturbing. Republicans in Congress must urgently demand an explanation.”
