If you thought the U.S. southern border crisis under the Biden-Harris Administration couldn’t get worse, a new bombshell House Judiciary report reveals otherwise. The report uncovers how illegal immigrants wanted for crimes such as sex trafficking and other violent offenses have exploited a loophole to enter the United States.
Due to the Biden-Harris Administration’s categorical parole program for nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela (CHNV), at least 30,000 individuals per month with violent records have bypassed the southern border and instead flown directly into U.S. airports. This program, described as creating “legal pathways,” was implemented without Congressional authorization.
Under this system, illegal immigrants are allowed into the country on commercial flights and granted parole for up to two years by the Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS). As of September 2024, more than 531,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans have entered the country through this process.
The report accuses the Biden-Harris Administration of manipulating border enforcement data by implementing policies that redirect illegal aliens away from the southwest border. By doing so, these individuals are excluded from official Border Patrol encounter statistics, artificially lowering the reported numbers.
To participate in the CHNV program, supporters must file a Form I-134A (Online Request to be a Supporter and Declaration of Financial Support) with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and agree to provide financial support for the parolee during their stay in the U.S. Once the individual arrives at a U.S. airport, a DHS official grants parole, allowing them to apply for a work permit.
The report further alleges that the administration’s actions constitute “fraud,” undermine national security, and endanger the American public “to ensure hundreds of thousands of otherwise illegal aliens can enter the U.S. through CHNV.”
Disturbingly, the House Judiciary report uncovered evidence suggesting that “sex traffickers have potentially used CHNV to exploit women and girls.” A fraud analysis of CHNV applications revealed that some applications submitted from the same IP addresses were disproportionately on behalf of female beneficiaries, raising concerns of trafficking.
A separate House Judiciary Committee investigation revealed that criminal organizations may be using the parole program to sneak women into the U.S. under the guise of sponsorship by individuals receiving welfare benefits. This includes cases where sponsors involved in criminal activities were approved to bring parolees from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela into the country.
The program, created in 2021 by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, has reportedly been plagued by widespread fraud. An internal investigation at USCIS uncovered applications submitted using stolen identities, deceased individuals, and, in one case, former First Lady Michelle Obama’s passport number.
The report also highlights troubling findings about sponsors. At least 336 approved sponsors were receiving welfare benefits, despite the program’s requirement that sponsors demonstrate financial independence to prevent migrants from becoming dependent on government aid. Additionally, 21 sponsorship applications were approved even though sponsors admitted some of their income came from illegal sources. DHS justified these approvals by claiming there was “sufficient income” from legal sources as well.
Perhaps most concerning, the program does not conduct criminal background checks on sponsors and lacks authorization to run names through FBI databases. This gap leaves the system vulnerable to abuse by individuals with criminal histories or ties to illicit activities.
