Nearly 1 million migrants have already crossed the border in SIX MONTHS: Staggering figures revealed as Biden plans to give COVID vaccines to migrants and the White House braces for huge influx when Title 42 is dropped
Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz is warning that in the next few days, CBP will have encountered 1 million migrants from when Fiscal Year 2022 started in October
So far in FY2022, 838,685 migrants were encounters by CBP – and when figures are released for March that number will climb to at least 1 million
It comes as the administration plans to give COVID-19 vaccines to migrants taken into custody in the U.S.
Estimates show that around 170,000 migrants are waiting on the Mexican side of the southern border to cross into the U.S. once Title 42 ends
The provision allowed for immediate expulsion without hearing asylum claims in the midst of the pandemic
In preparation for this surge, DHS is prepared to initially provide up to 2,700 vaccines per day to migrants at their facilities
They plan to increase that to 6,000 daily by the end of May
