CCUSA submits comments to DHS on proposed collection, use of biometrics
October 13, 2020
The proposed rule would dramatically expand government surveillance over immigrants and the U.S. citizens sponsoring immigration cases, collecting DNA, voice prints, iris and face scans as well other personal characteristics to be stored in government databases. We respectfully urge DHS to withdraw the proposed rule in its entirety because it would authorize invasive data collection, storage, and sharing far beyond any legitimate justification connected to DHS in our government.
