ICE is developing new ID card for migrants amid growing arrivals at the border
The devil is always in the details but I am not sure what I think about this story.
CNN reports that “the Biden administration is developing a new identification 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.”
The report states that “Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst who works on privacy issues at the American Civil Liberties Union, noted that in general, storing personal data in one place raises privacy risks.”
