A large number of migrants who were temporarily allowed to live in the United States through the CBP One app under the Biden administration have been instructed to leave immediately. The Department of Homeland Security cited the need to secure borders and protect national security as the reason for canceling the paroles granted through the app. While the exact number of affected individuals is unclear, termination notices have been sent to beneficiaries from countries such as Honduras, El Salvador, and Mexico.
The CBP One app was a key part of the Biden administration’s strategy to provide legal pathways for entering the United States and discourage illegal border crossings. However, former President Trump ended the app for new entrants shortly after taking office, leaving many stranded in Mexico. The Trump administration has also revoked temporary status for many individuals who benefited from Biden’s policies, leading to further complications for migrants from countries like Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and others.
Overall, the Biden administration’s use of parole authority has been criticized for allegedly contributing to the worst border crisis in U.S. history. As a result, the Department of Homeland Security has been actively working to reverse some of these policies and revoke temporary status for hundreds of thousands of individuals, further adding to the challenges faced by migrants seeking to live and work in the United States.
