Under Biden, U.S. Border Patrol Is Encountering Twice as Many Migrants as before the Pandemic
In fiscal year 2017 — meaning the year starting on October 1, 2016, and ending on September 30, 2017 — the U.S. Border Patrol encountered 310,531 people attempting to cross into the country. That was the first year Donald Trump was in office, and it is likely that many migrants believed the U.S. had a less welcoming and more hostile response to those attempting to cross the border. But migrants gradually overcame their trepidation related to the new administration. The following fiscal year, that number increased to 404,142. The following fiscal year after that, 2019, the number jumped to 859,501. Then the pandemic hit midway through fiscal year 2020, and it dropped back down to 405,036.
Then in fiscal year 2021 — the first year that Joe Biden was in office and setting immigration enforcement policies, starting in January — the U.S. Border Patrol encountered 1,662,167 people — roughly double the pre-pandemic total and four times the pandemic-year total.
In the month of October, the U.S. Border Patrol encountered 186,672 people — meaning the pace of fiscal year 2021 is continuing.
These numbers are for all attempts to enter the country at any border. At the southwest border with Mexico, the Border Patrol has encountered at least 170,000 people per month every month from March to September, peaking with July’s 213,000 and only declining to 164,000 in October. Keep that in mind when you read New York Times headlines touting, “Unauthorized Migration Across the Mexico-U.S. Border Slips.” Yes, the monthly sum is down from the peak, but it is well above the 2020 numbers — which were probably unusually low because of the global pandemic — and also well above the 80,000-per-month average for 2019.
President Biden pledged to create a path to citizenship for those who are in the country illegally. Illegal immigrants also hear about decisions such as the Biden administration’s prohibiting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from conducting worksite raids for illegal aliens. Meanwhile, House Democrats are proposing “grant[ing] immigration parole to illegals here since 2011, providing them work permits, Social Security numbers, and driver’s licenses, and everything that flows from that — effectively, a ‘DACA-for-All’ program.”

It ain't going to get any better, folks. How many illegals do we really need, anyway? How many can we afford? Sure, let's make 'em all citizens so they can vote, right?

Joe Biden, members of his administration, and congressional Democrats lied to you.
