Biden Administration Exceeding Limits on Releasing Immigrants into the U.S., Report Finds

The Biden Administration Exceeds Immigration Limits

According to records obtained by The Washington Free Beacon, the Biden administration has exceeded its own limits on allowing immigrants into the U.S. The Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials on the southern border have been allowing an average of 1,473 immigrants per day through the CBP One app in July. This is higher than the current limit of 1,450 per day, which has been raised twice since May. The administration has been criticized for breaking its own limits despite expanding legal pathways for immigration into the country.

The Expansion of the CBP One App

The CBP One app, which was introduced in October 2020, has undergone significant expansion under the Biden administration. This app is responsible for releasing a considerable number of immigrants into the United States on parole. However, it is important to note that this app is not the sole option for immigrants seeking asylum and parole for immigration purposes.

Ignoring Limits on Parole

The Biden administration has expanded sponsorship programs for immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, offering 30,000 slots monthly. However, there are reports suggesting that the administration is ignoring its own limits on parole under the CBP One app. This comes at a time when the United States is facing a significant crisis on the southern border, with millions of immigrants crossing and overwhelming communities and resources.

New York City's Space Shortage

New York City is facing a space shortage due to a small number of immigrants who have arrived from the southern border, primarily through buses funded by Texas. Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat, has authorized the distribution of flyers along the border to inform incoming immigrants that the city is unable to accommodate them.

Worsening Situation in New York City

New York City may be facing a worsening situation with immigration, as the city's mayoral candidate, Eric Adams, warned that things are only going to get worse. Adams stated that there is no more room for immigrants and that the situation is downhill from here. Images from Monday morning showed numerous immigrants sleeping outside the Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, which had recently been reopened as an arrival center for immigrants coming from the southern border.

Promises and Criticisms

The article discusses the promises made by New York City mayoral candidate Eric Adams regarding the issue of illegal immigration. Adams assures that the city will not resemble other cities with tents lining the streets. The Biden administration is said to have claimed a 70% reduction in illegal immigration since the repeal of Title 42 in May. However, critics argue that instead of curbing immigration, the administration has expanded legal pathways and directed immigrants to enter through ports of entry.
