YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHomeland security secretary nominee Kristi Noem said in her confirmation hearing Thursday held by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs that on her first day in office, she would shut down an app that asylum-seekers use to enter the country.
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., asked Noem about the app, CBP One, which has been designated by President Joe Biden’s administration as the only way migrants can seek asylum on the southern border.
“Senator, if confirmed and I have the opportunity to be secretary, on day one, CBP One will be shut down,” Noem said, adding “there's data and information in there that we will preserve, so that we can ensure we know who's coming into this country and who's already here, that we need to go find.”
Noem, the Republican governor of South Dakota, is a rancher and a former member of Congress. A close ally to Trump, Noem has called migration across the U.S. southern border “an invasion.” If confirmed, Noem would play a key role in carrying out his promised immigration crackdown by leading the Department of Homeland Security, one of the largest federal agencies.
