Controversy erupts over CBP One app, GOP Congressman calls it a 'Disney FastPass' for migrants
Hindustan TimesA GOP congressman slammed the Biden administration’s CBP One App as a “Disney FastPass” for migrants into the US at a tense hearing on the US-Mexico border Wednesday. Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida accused Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of letting migrants stay in the US indefinitely through the app, which he said was like a theme park ticket. A migrant shows the CBP One App from the US Customs and Border Protection agency, to use to apply for an appointment to claim asylum, on a phone in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua state, Mexico, on May 10, 2023. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testifies before the House Judiciary Committee hearing on Oversight of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, July 26, 2023.
