Lawsuit Filed by Passengers Made to Present ID to CBP to Exit Plane

Several passengers who were aboard a domestic flight from San Francisco to New York in February 2017 where U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) made all passengers present identification before exiting the plane have filed a lawsuit challenging the government’s action as an illegal search and seizure. According to the plaintiffs, “Two uniformed CBP officers positioned themselves at the doorway of the airplane, forcing passengers to queue inside and delaying their exit as the CBP officers stopped each passenger, took their identification documents, examined them, and only then permitted them to pass.” Again – Trump trying to take constitutional rights away.

If you are waved through, are you admitted to the U.S.?

The Fifth Circuit granted the petition for review, holding that a wave-through at a port of entry is an “admission in any status” under 8 USC §1229b(a)(2), and that the petitioner, a lawful permanent resident, was thus eligible for cancellation of removal.

In a status update on its border security efforts, DHS indicated that the number of total apprehensions along the southwest border during the first six months of FY2015 was 151,805, which is down nearly 60,000 (or 28%) compared to the same period in FY2014. Additionally, total apprehensions along the southwest border—comprised of apprehensions of unaccompanied children, family units, and single adults—for FY2015 are at their lowest point in the past four fiscal years.
