Migrants reportedly made millions of attempts to secure an asylum appointment through a phone app popularized by former President Joe Biden in just the past two years.
Asylum seekers made 166 million attempts to secure an appointment with U.S. immigration officials through the CBP One App in the past two years, according to internal documents obtained by CBS News. The CBP One allowed nearly one million foreign nationals to enter the United States before President Donald Trump followed through on a campaign promise Monday and immediately shut down the app. (RELATED: Democrat Says ‘Left’ Is Out For Blood After He Criticized Chicago’s Shielding Of Illegal Migrants From ICE)
First established in October 2020 with a very limited scope, the Biden administration greatly expanded the use of CBP One in January 2023. The app has since enabled migrants to schedule appointments to obtain exemptions at ports of entry and permits them to submit biometric data to federal immigration authorities in order to apply for travel authorization and obtain parole.
