This is by no means safe. The TSA has admitted that if an illegal wants to fly on an airplane and they don’t have a valid ID, then they can use an ICE Arrest Warrant or other DHS- issued forms for identification instead. Yea because we wouldn’t want to inconvenience the illegals living in our country that want to fly around the nation…
“For all travelers, if an individual does not have acceptable ID as listed on TSA’s acceptable forms of ID list, TSA will accept additional forms of ID that have the individual’s name, with preference given to Government-issued ID. One of the two forms must have the individual’s name and identifying information such as a photo, address, phone number, social security number, or date of birth. For all travelers who lack acceptable ID, TSA uses the NTVC, which attempts to verify a traveler’s identity by using the individual’s information along with information from government and commercial databases. All such individuals receive additional screening procedures as described in the Checkpoint and Specialized Screening Standard Operating Procedure.
a. Please list each document.
DHS-issued forms that TSA may accept at the checkpoint include the following:
• ICE Form I-200 – Warrant for Arrest of Alien
• ICE Form I-205 – Warrant of Removal/Deportation
• ICE Form I-220A – Order of Release on Recognizance
• ICE Form 1-220B – Order of Supervision
• DHS Form 1-862 – Notice to Appear
• CBP Form 1-94 – Arrival and Departure Form (including a print-out of an
electronic record)
• DHS Form I-385 – Alien Booking Record”
“Additionally, TSA said it screens passengers through its Secure Flight program before they enter airport security and board a plane to check if they are on the terrorist database and other watch lists.
TSA said it relies on agencies such as CBP or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which issue the documents to migrants, to verify that the name on the document used as alternate identification “is the person whom the person claims to be.”
“The use of arrest warrants as ID, reported by The Daily Caller, came in response to a congressional query by Rep. Lance Gooden, R-Texas, who has been investigating the process by which migrants are brought into the country.
In November, Gooden’s office received a packet given to migrants via a whistleblower. That packet included flight information, copies of the Notice to Appear from Customs and Border Protection (CBP), a list of pro bono legal service providers, maps of major cities in the U.S., and information and legal assistance in Spanish.”
“Gooden earlier told the DCNF that he was told by a border patrol officer that “they often have to take migrants at their word that they are who they say they are” when issuing DHS documents accepted by TSA as alternate forms of identification”
We are making it far too easy for illegals in this country. What’s the point of getting citizenship if Dems give illegals access to everything citizens get, with the perk of not paying taxes.
