Josh Hawley (R-MO) sent a letter to&nbsp;Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Administrator David Pekoske on Monday, inquiring why the TSA is allowing illegal aliens to present arrest warrants as valid forms of identification, stressing that both TSA and the Department of Homeland Security \u201cshould be focusing their efforts on their core responsibilities, such as preventing entry into the United States by those who pose a threat to homeland security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI write with alarm over reports that you are allowing illegal aliens to present arrest warrants and notices of deportation as valid identification to pass checkpoints and board commercial airplanes. This policy subverts the rule of law and should be rescinded immediately,\u201d Hawley <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hawley.senate.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/2022-02\/2022-01-31%20Letter%20to%20DHS_FINAL%5B1%5D.pdf\">began<\/a>, citing a spokesman for TSA who told Fox News that \u201cnon-citizens and non-U.S. nationals who do not otherwise have acceptable forms of ID for presentation at security checkpoints\u201d can use other \u201cDHS-issued forms, including ICE Form I-200 (Warrant for Arrest of an Alien).\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>He also presented Pekoske with his own words, as he said TSA \u201cestablished a process where it will accept certain DHS-issued forms for non-citizens and non-U.S. nationals who do not have otherwise acceptable forms of ID for presentation at its security checkpoints,\u201d which includes the warrants and notices of deportation.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThis is unacceptable. No government security agency should permit individuals to use an arrest warrant or deportation notice to pass a security check,\u201d the senator said, noting the fundamental point of an arrest warrant is \u201cfor police to actively seek out and apprehend criminals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fact that they can present these as a valid form of ID to travel is what Hawley calls a \u201cdystopian inversion\u201d which \u201cexceeds the point of absurdity where radical open-border policies attempt to accomplish the very opposite of DHS\u2019s core mission: apprehending those who cross our borders illegally\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>DHS and TSA should be focusing their efforts on their core responsibilities, such as preventing entry into the United States by those who pose a threat to homeland security\u2014 like Malik Faisal Akram, who recently flew from the United Kingdom into a New York airport and attempted an anti-Semitic terrorist attack in a Texas synagogue. It is time to reverse policies that glorify illegal immigration and start enforcing our immigration laws.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hawley provided a series of questions in his letter, asking which DHS components developed the policy and inquiring how many individuals TSA has permitted to travel after using arrest warrants or deportation notices as ID, among other questions, which he requested answers to by February 28, 2022.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">Hawley is not the only individual who has sounded the alarm over this&nbsp;policy. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/01\/31\/exclusive-rep-scott-perry-previews-upcoming-unsanctioned-hearing-horrors-border-crisis\/\">Speaking<\/a> to <em>Breitbart&nbsp;News Saturday<\/em>&nbsp;over the weekend, Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA), chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, laid out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2022\/01\/25\/watch-biden-admin-mass-releases-single-adult-migrants-into-texas-border-city\/\">disastrous&nbsp;situation<\/a> on the southern border, noting that the Biden&nbsp;administration is \u201c<\/span><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">shipping single adult males right into our towns knowing they\u2019re putting criminal aliens on flights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u201cYou can\u2019t get on a plane without proper identification, but they can literally use their arrest warrant for being here illegally as their identification to the TSA.
