El Paso lawyer warns of risks of CBP app's 'self-deport' feature

The Department of Homeland Security unveiled the CBP Home app, which allows individuals in the U.S. Unlawfully to submit intent to self-deport and avoid arrest by ICE according to a DHS press release.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem encouraged illegal migrants to use the app to self-deport to avoid deportation by ICE and never returning to the U.S.
Michael Wirz, an immigration attorney, cautioned that applying for self-deportation could make undocumented individuals targets for deportation, saying, 'You’re making yourself a target.'
Public reactions are mixed, with some El Paso residents supporting the app while others are concerned about its implications for undocumented individuals.
