DHS Reveals How Far We Are From Having Illegal Immigration Under Control
January 25, 2018
News reports in early December 2017 highlighted the fact that under President Trump, illegal border crossings had dropped to a 45-year low. This caused some open border advocates to question the need for many of the enforcement tools espoused by the president during his campaign.
Don’t get excited too quickly. New statistics out of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) demonstrate that while apprehensions have been below the historic average, we’re not quite out of the woods yet. In fact, DHS is apprehending more than 1,100 illegal immigrants per day, with the number peaking at 1,400 in a single day on January 14.
