Illegal Alien Encounters On the Rise Again in March
PUBLISHED: Fri, APR 21st 2023 @ 2:26 pm EDT
According to Customs and Border Protection, illegal immigration surged significantly in March after a couple months of steady yet deceptive decline. Some report that the increase indicates that the Biden Administration’s new program attempting to discourage illegal border crossers is losing its teeth.
Last month, Border Patrol agents saw a staggering 32,000 alien jump in apprehensions of illegal border crossers compared to February. In total, Border Patrol apprehended 162,317 illegal aliens who crossed the southern border.
This included 11 more aliens whose names appeared on the government’s terrorist watchlist.
Additionally, the rising numbers are raising concerns over next month’s expected end of Title 42, the CDC’s public health order that allowed rapid expulsion authority to DHS.
