WASHINGTON - Up to 60 U.S Border Patrol agents will be trained to conduct initial asylum screenings as part of a pilot effort to speed up the vetting of migrants who seek refuge in the United States, U.S. officials told a congressional committee on Thursday.
Immigration advocates have criticized the plan, saying that border enforcement staff are not able to carry out the legally sensitive and complex interviews that are meant to be non-adversarial and sensitive to trauma. U.S. President Donald Trump has said repeatedly that the standards for entry into the United States are too lenient.
“Once we feel they’re ready to actually start conducting some credible fear screenings, we will have those be monitored, we will supervise them,” Renaud said. She estimated border agents would begin conducting screenings in late May or early June.Reuters reported last Saturday that revisions in a USCIS lesson plan for interviewers could make it harder for migrants to establish credible fear, but it was not immediately clear if the new plan would be used by the agents.
