President Trump’s policies aroused vehement opposition from many Democrats, and the party’s presidential nominee pledged to end them.
When Joe Biden took office, he was as good as his word. Unfortunately, the policies with which he replaced Trump’s measures failed to manage the southern border effectively. Encounters with migrants at the southwestern border rose to 1.7 million in FY 2021, 2.4 million in FY 2022, and 2.5 million in FY 2023. (In addition, an estimated 600,000 entered the U.S. undetected, without encountering border agents, in FY 2023.) During the first quarter of FY 2024 (October 1, 2023-December 31, 2023) encounters totaled 785,000, putting the United States on pace for 3.1 million encounters during the current fiscal year.

doesn't even include 2024, which is massively worse.
