Border Arrests Drop to Lowest Level of Biden Presidency
Recent executive orders and cooperation with Mexico contribute to a significant decline in illegal border crossings.
- June saw a 29% decrease in border arrests, the lowest since Biden took office.
- The new policy limits asylum access when daily arrests exceed 2,500.
- Over 70,000 migrants have been repatriated since the policy's implementation.
- Critics argue the administration is redirecting crossings to ports of entry, which saw near-record numbers.
- The policy has faced backlash from immigration advocates and some Democrats.
