WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — It was reported earlier that US Citizenship and Immigration Services in recent years produced at least 19,000 ID cards that contained incorrect information, were issued in duplicate, or were sent to a wrong address.
"This is yet another wake-up call that it’s time for sweeping reform across the Department," McCaul stated. "The American people… are demanding… that we secure our borders, enforce our immigration laws and shut down all illegal pathways into the United States."
"Whether it’s aviation security or the security of our immigration system, the American people are losing faith that DHS is able to do its job," he warned.
McCaul has been tipped as a frontrunner to be chosen by President-elect Donald Trump as the next Secretary of Homeland Security, according to US media reports.
