Sen. Hawley Tears into Mayorkas for ‘CBP One’ App: ‘It’s Like a Concierge Service for the Illegal Immigrants’

‘They can now go on their phone and schedule a time to come to the border’

EXCERPT:

HAWLEY: "Let’s talk about what you’re doing though. In January of this year, you rolled out a new phone app called CBP One, an app for a cellphone, I’ve got a picture of it behind me here. This phone app allows -- and I’m going to quote from your own fact sheet -- it allows, and I quote, 'non-citizens without appropriate documents for admission to schedule an appointment to come to the border.' They can now go on their phone and schedule a time to come to the border and then be admitted. And you identified seven separate border points of entry where they could come, five of them in Texas, two of them in California, one in Arizona. It’s like a concierge service for illegal immigrants. My question is, you didn’t think the border crisis was bad enough that now we’re going to have an app that allows illegals to schedule their appointments and come and be admitted to this country*"
