Biden admin again increases number of migrants allowed into US via controversial app

The Department of Homeland Security says it will allow up to 1,450 migrants a day into the U.S. via the use of the controversial CBP One app, which schedules appointments.

Initially, the agency was allowing 1,000 people in each day ahead of the end of Title 42 in May. In June, it increased the number to 1,250. The latest change means the number of migrants entering the U.S. each day via the process has increased by nearly 50%.  Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

"CBP is expanding the number of available appointments at ports of entry for the second time in less than two months, through scheduling enhancements and operational efficiencies," said acting CBP Commissioner Troy Miller said in a statement. "By utilizing innovative technologies like CBP One™, we are improving the delivery of our homeland security mission and providing for safe and efficient processes at ports of entry."
