The Department of Homeland Security announced an initiative to encourage illegal aliens to self-deport using the CBP Home App.
Those who use the CBP APP will help facilitate illegal aliens, including money, to return to their home country.
The illegal aliens will receive a $1,000 stipend once they make it home.
“If you are here illegally, self-deportation is the best, safest and most cost-effective way to leave the United States to avoid arrest. DHS is now offering illegal aliens financial travel assistance and a stipend to return to their home country through the CBP Home App,” stated Secretary Kristi Noem. “This is the safest option for our law enforcement, aliens and is a 70% savings for US taxpayers. Download the CBP Home App TODAY and self-deport.”
In the end, the initiative would save taxpayers a lot of money since it costs around $17,121 to arrest, detain, and remove a single illegal alien.
The administration estimates the flights and stipend would cost the taxpayer $4,500.
DHS told Fox News that DHS will de-prioritize the illegal alien for an ICE arrest if they register to self-deport.
