Todd Bensman with the Center for Immigration Studies: ‘The Biden Administration has Industrialized Parole Authority’

Illegal Immigrants

Todd Bensman, senior national security fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, said the Biden administration has “industrialized parole authority” through its program that has flown 320,000 inadmissible aliens into 43 American airports over the past year.

“[The migrants] are coming in on an authority called parole. That’s supposed to be for two or three immigrants a year on a case by case basis, like an emergency medical treatment or, they need somebody to testify in an important case, and then they turn them right back,” Bensman explained on Monday’s edition of The Michael Patrick Leahy Show. “The Biden administration has industrialized parole authority. Now they’re just letting hundreds of thousands in all at once instead of two or three as the law says on a case by case basis.”

Bensman added that the Biden administration is “breaking the law” while also “creating new law” under “executive fiat.”

“It’s a brand new admissions program that they created outside of the authority of Congress. Remember, Congress solely has the authority to create and approve admissions programs but in this case, they just have done this by executive fiat that brought in 320,000 by air – airport to airport – and another 450,000 from the land bridges,” Bensman said.

“They’re trying to reduce the number of illegal entries by scheduling illegal entries in a different way and counting them somewhere else,” Bensman added.

Bensman said the only way to end the program is through the Supreme Court or through the action of a new president.

“They’re just going to have to elect somebody else and or wait for the litigation to make its way to the Supreme Court,” Bensman said, noting how 20 state attorneys general have sued for “abuse of parole.”
