Have US airports discontinued stamping passports with an entry stamp?

Many airports across the United States have already discontinued stamping passports with an entry or admission stamp. Instead of receiving an entry or admission stamp in the passport, the foreign national will be required to visit the CBP website at https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/home and retrieve their I-94 record.
