ICE is developing new ID cards for migrants
July 26, 2022
A new identification card is created by the Biden administration for migrant arrivals at the border to access immigration files and eventually be accepted by the Transportation Security Administration for travel. Officials say that the ID card will facilitate accountability in the immigration process. The card is expected to display information such as name and nationality, as well as a QR code to access a portal containing the individual’s relevant immigration information. The goal of the portal is to provide an easier way for individuals to update their information and check in with federal authorities as they go through the immigration process. The Department of Homeland Security aims to pilot the program by the end of the year.
