The Biden administration is developing a new ID card for migrants to serve as a one-stop shop to access immigration files and, eventually, be accepted by the Transportation Security Administration for travel, according to two Homeland Security officials.
The initiative is part of an ongoing effort by the Biden administration to streamline processes that have often led to confusion among immigrants who are in removal proceedings -- and comes as officials grapple with growing arrivals at the US-Mexico border.Republicans have seized on President Joe Biden's handling of the US southern border and slammed the administration's immigration policies, including downsizing detention and limiting immigration arrests to focus on security risks.
A recent report from the House Appropriations Committee report mentioned the so-called ICE Secure Docket Card program and the $10 million appropriated to get it off the ground. The report, which accompanies the Department of Homeland Security appropriations bill for fiscal year 2023, describes the program as allowing"noncitizens access to immigration files and documents."The agency plans to pilot the card by the end of the year, the Homeland Security official said.
