DHS rushing faulty citizenship system that could miss ‘national security threats’: IG
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Monday, January 23, 2017
The government’s new system that grants citizenship has “alarming” security breaches, including allowing immigrants to be approved without a full FBI background check, the Homeland Security inspector general said Monday in an “urgent” warning telling officials to put everything on hold.
Inspector General John Roth said he got wind that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services was about to take the troubled system online later this month, and said he was compelled to issue the extraordinary alert to try to prevent a massive mistake.
He said that as of Jan. 11, about 175 citizenship applications were approved despite never having completed the background checks.
