The number of illegals arrested after attempting to cross the US border with Mexico continues to rise with 188,000 "encounters" in June, according to Customs and Border Protection. That number is the highest on record for at least a decade.
The 188,000 arrests represent an increase of around 8,000 since May. So far this fiscal year, more than a million illegal aliens have been apprehended at the border. That's more than in 2019, when the influx of illegals was labeled a "humanitarian disaster."
Monthly data is used as a measure of illegal migration to the U.S. However, in March 2020, the U.S. implemented a public health measure that allowed for the rapid expulsion of migrants at the border, resulting in an impact on the number of repeated crosses. The The Biden administration has maintained the Trump-era health order, known as "Title 42," amid ongoing litigation and a torrent of criticism from immigration advocates and some lawmakers.
Title 42 is likely to end this month. The administration warns that when it ends, a massive increase in refugees is expected, including 1200 families a day.
Most of the encounters in June were of single adults, but families and unaccompanied children increased from the previous month. Customs and Border Protection intercepted some 55,805 family members and 15,253 unaccompanied children in June, up from 44,639 and 14,158 in May, respectively.
An unidentified administration official told the Free Washington Beacon that โBorder Patrol agents, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, and customs officers strive to protect and secure our border. Asking them to process approximately 6,000 people a week certainly depletes already scarce resources and increases human trafficking and drug smuggling. "
Endorsement at the border means that people try to enter the United States multiple times. About 70,000 illegal aliens made at least two attempts to enter the country before being turned away due to Title 42.
It has been discreetly disclosed that Title 42 restrictions will be eased for family units attempting to enter the country in the coming days.
Biden reportedly plans to exempt households from Title 42 removals starting in the next few days or weeks, but questions remain about how many families will attempt to cross and whether U.S. government agencies can process them and the Nonprofit social service groups can help. in a timely and efficient manner.
"The Biden administration, the Mexican government and international organizations must come up with a plan," Noorani said. โThe MPP rollback provides an important template of how it can be done so that families can interact with (United Nations agencies), get their COVID test, and go through a safe and orderly process that protects them from cartels and it allows them to enter the United States and present their asylum case. "
Biden is urged to use the services of UN agencies to help with the spillover. A better idea might be to deny entry to non-citizens. But like any other third world country, Biden wants to contract US border services from the incompetent UN.
Then when a humanitarian disaster strikes, Biden can blame the UN and NGOs.
