U.S. Border Crossings Hit Record Low in March

News summary

Recent data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection indicates that illegal border crossings have reached an all-time low, with only 7,180 encounters recorded in March. This figure represents a significant decline compared to the monthly averages during the Biden administration, where daily crossings exceeded 7,000. Acting CBP Commissioner Pete Flores attributed this decrease to the enforcement of stricter immigration policies under the Trump administration, emphasizing that the border is effectively closed to illegal entries, with those who attempt to cross facing prosecution and deportation. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt praised the drop in numbers, stating that border agents are now able to focus on their primary role of securing the border. Local advocacy groups have noted the stark reduction in migrant arrivals and expressed mixed feelings about the enforcement changes, highlighting both the absence of migrants and the potential implications of heightened border security measures. Overall, these developments reflect a dramatic shift in the landscape of U.S. border management.
