Original Note:
While it is correct that the DHS is giving out phones to immigrants, the phones cannot be used to call friends or scroll social media. DHS uses these phones to track immigrants till their court date is up. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/06/05/us/border-migrants-cell-phones-cec/index.html https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/04/27/fact-check-undocumented-migrants-can-get-smartphones-tracking/9539929002/
