• Immigration

The Mexican government has begun busing migrants to the U.S. border if they have appointments under a controversial use of a phone app implemented by the Biden administration that allows migrants to be paroled into the U.S. The CBP One app was expanded during the Biden administration to allow up to 1,450 migrants per day to schedule an appointment at a U.S. port of entry to be paroled into the U.S. if they meet certain conditions. The app also allows them to upload documents before that appointment. (Fox News)

An illegal alien from the Dominican Republic is suspected of murdering a family of four in a suburb of Rochester, New York. Julio Cesar Pimentel Soriano, 34, entered the U.S. illegally from Puerto Rico and obtained a fraudulent New York state ID, which allowed him access to the mainland. He murdered Fraime Ubaldo, 30, Marangely Moreno-Santiago, 26, and their children Evangeline Ubaldo-Moreno, 4, and Sebastian Ubaldo-Moreno, 2. (Newsweek)

The North Carolina legislature passed a bill to end sanctuary cities in the state. All local sheriffs would be forced to cooperate with federal immigration officials. Latino advocacy organizations are asking Gov. Roy Cooper to veto the bill, but the Republicans have a veto-proof majority. (WHQR)

A tiny township of 18,000 residents in southern Pennsylvania is up in arms about plans to turn a former school for veterans’ children into a migrant camp. The local zoning board has denied the request of the non-profit that owns the facility, but they have suggested that they plan on appealing the board’s decision. (The New York Post)

• Education

New Jersey’s state’s attorney general, Matthew J. Platkin, is seeking a compromise over a longstanding lawsuit from black and Hispanic parents who complain that their schools have too many minorities in them. They’re demanding access to white majority schools, something that’s becoming increasingly difficult as birthrates and mass immigration rapidly alter the demographics of the country. Platkin is floating the idea that a small number of minority students attend schools outside their home districts and adjustments to the state’s vocational school network. New magnet schools, based in cities with specialized curriculums, would be expected to attract an economically and racially diverse group of students from the surrounding region.

• Crime

The Bureau of Justice Statistics Survey for 2023 released estimates for crimes committed during the year. The report found that last year, there were 22.5 violent victimizations per 1,000 persons age 12 or older in the United States, which was similar to the 2022 rate. It’s important to note that crime is still up compared to 2019 and 2020, before the Black Lives Matter surge in crime.

The real-time crime index was examined more thoroughly over the last six years. While total violent crime shrank from 2022 to 2023, the numbers were not even across the country. Crime increased significantly in New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
