The Transportation Security Administration is giving U.S. immigration officials the names of every airline traveler as part of the Trump administration’s widespread deportation program, The New York Times reported Friday.
TSA, several times per week, gives Immigration and Customs Enforcement a list of travelers expected to be passing through airports, the Times reported.
“ICE can then match the list against its own database of people subject to deportation and send agents to the airport to detain those people,” the newspaper said.
ICE and TSA are both divisions of the Homeland Security Department.
A Homeland Security spokesperson, in a statement to CNBC, said of the Times report, “This is nothing new.”
