The Washington Post: The Department of Homeland Security has made progress in recent years in turning around a troubled initiative to digitize the nation’s immigration system, Secretary Jeh Johnson said Wednesday.
In a statement, Johnson was critical of a story that ran Monday in The Washington Post that documented the department’s problems with the digital project. The project, run by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, was originally supposed to cost a half-billion dollars and be finished in 2013. Instead, it’s now projected to reach up to $3.1 billion and be done nearly four years from now.
