CBP Reports Historic Low in Illegal Immigration Under Trump

News summary

In February 2025, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported a historic decline in illegal immigration, with apprehensions at just 8,347, a 94% decrease from the same month in 2024. This significant drop has been attributed to the implementation of new executive orders by President Donald Trump aimed at securing the southern border. Daily apprehensions averaged approximately 330, marking the lowest rate in CBP history, as the agency continues to enforce stringent measures against illegal crossings. The Colombian government noted an increase in Venezuelan migrants returning home, linking this trend to Trump's border policies, which have discouraged attempts to enter the U.S. Additionally, the CBP reported a substantial reduction in the flow of drugs and illegal crossings through the Darien Gap, further illustrating the impact of the administration's immigration strategies. Trump has claimed credit for these changes, asserting that they signify an end to what he refers to as the 'invasion' of the country.
