Number of Migrants Increasing Along Southern Border
2nd February 2021
There has been a steady uptick in the number of migrants along parts of the U.S.-Mexico border as they look for the possible easing of immigration restrictions by President Joe Biden.
Fox News reported that Border Patrol agents have seen increases in apprehensions among Central American families and unaccompanied children — especially in the Rio Grande Valley and Tucson, Arizona, sectors.
An agent based in Texas noted that in three out of the last seven days, there had been at least 800 arrests in his sector — an increase of 450 a day from just a few months ago. He also told Fox News that border agents encountered two separate groups of more than 100 migrants approaching the border.
My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.
