U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said Friday far more unaccompanied children and family units have crossed into the U.S. illegally since 2013 than ever before.
“It’s really a dramatic difference, over the last five years even,†McAleenan said during a conference hosted by the Bipartisan Policy Center. “We usually always had single adults, and usually males. 90 percent through 2008 were single adults. Now we’re seeing this year a full 40 percent crossing our border or either children unaccompanied, that’s 15 percent, or family units, 25 percent.â€
