EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — The number of arrests for illegal border crossings has fallen from an all-time high to some of the Biden administration’s lowest this fiscal year alone. Yet some areas of the border are seeing encounters going up.
In this week’s episode of “Border Report Live” (Fridays at 11 a.m. ET), host Chip Brewster and Border Report correspondents Sandra Sanchez and Julian Resendiz examine the factors that are either slowing or increasing illegal migration across the U.S.-Mexico border. They also discuss what is causing migration to shift from region to region and state to state.
Migrant arrests along the Southwest border fell 77% in eight months, going from 249,741 in December to 56,399 in July.
