Comment on CBP Proposed Rule To Drastically Expand the Use of Facial Recognition Technology
Published
The American Immigration Council submitted a comment in opposition to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Proposed Rule on the "Collection of Biometric Data from Aliens Upon Entry to and Departure from the United States". The Proposed Rule would drastically expand the use of unproven facial recognition technology at ports of entry throughout the United States. The comment explains how the changes are contrary to current law and describes the significant privacy implications of these proposed changes for citizens and non-citizens alike.
Help us fight for immigration justice!
The research is clear – immigrants are more likely to win their cases with a lawyer by their side. But very few can get attorneys.
Introducing the Immigration Justice Campaign Access Fund.
Your support sends attorneys, provides interpreters, and delivers justice.
Immigration Justice Campaign is an initiative of American Immigration Council and American Immigration Lawyers Association. The mission is to increase free legal services for immigrants navigating our complicated immigration system and leverage the voices and experiences of those most directly impacted by our country’s immigration policies to inform legal and advocacy strategies. We bring together a broad network of volunteers who provide legal assistance and advocate for due process for immigrants with a humane approach that includes universal legal representation and other community-based support for individuals during their immigration cases.
