The Epoch Times: CBP Reports Significant Decrease in Illegal Migrant Encounters Amid Stricter Asylum Rules
Illegal immigration across the southern border of the US has significantly decreased, with encounters dropping by nearly a third in June compared to the previous month. The decline is attributed to the enforcement of consequences under Title 8 authorities and the expansion of lawful pathways for migrants. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has also reported successful efforts in drug interdiction, resulting in increased narcotics seizures. The agency has made progress in disrupting drug supply chains and has implemented new operations to combat the movement of fentanyl. Overall, CBP is focused on enforcing immigration laws, improving technology deployment, and ensuring high-security standards.
Republicans have accused the Biden administration of manipulating the reporting of illegal entries into the US, arguing that the change in reporting methods is misleading. They claim that the administration redefined some illegal crossings to be classified as "those that have entered by legal pathway," which they believe is facilitated through the CBP One app. During a hearing, Republicans criticized the app, arguing that it allows illegal aliens to enter the US through a "legal pathway" based on asylum claims. The actions of the administration are viewed as an overreach by the executive branch against Congress.
