Lankford's tough, major immigration reform was endorsed by the Border Guards Union, the American Chamber of Commerce, the Wall Street Journal, etc., but the elderly sexual abuser/business fraud/convicted felon did not want the President to be credited for signing it into law.
Biden has reduced illegal immigration anyway:
The number of migrants crossing the southern border has dropped sharply since the Biden administration imposed severe restrictions on asylum last month.
In June, there were just over 83,000 illegal crossings, according to U.S. border officials, down from around 117,000 in May and the lowest monthly total since January 2021.
The downturn in crossings has continued into July. The daily average of encounters at the border in the past week was under 1,900 as of Monday, according to a senior U.S. Customs and Border Protection official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal statistics.
The steep decrease coincides with the implementation of a June policy that bans asylum at the southern border, along with ramped-up enforcement from Mexican officials starting this year.
June had the lowest monthly total for illegal crossings since January 2021. But the downturn comes amid intense focus on President Biden’s candidacy and the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
