Border sheriffs doubt drop in illegal immigrant crossings after Title 42 ends.

Illegal Immigration at U.S.-Mexico Border Drops After Title 42 Border Restrictions End

The White House has been boasting about the recent decrease in illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border after Title 42 border restrictions were lifted last week. However, sheriffs along the border remain skeptical about the sustainability of this decrease in illegal crossings.

Border Patrol Encounters Decrease Since May 12

According to the U.S. Border Patrol, there has been a steady decrease in daily encounters since May 12. The daily average encounters have dropped to just over 4,400, which is less than half of the peak in March.

Border Sheriffs Remain Skeptical

Despite the decrease in illegal immigration, border sheriffs are not convinced that this trend will continue. They believe that the root causes of illegal immigration, such as poverty and violence in Central America, have not been addressed.

What’s Next?

It remains to be seen whether the decrease in illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border will continue. The Biden administration has promised to address the root causes of illegal immigration, but it will take time to see the effects of these efforts.

• Will the decrease in illegal immigration last?
• What steps will the Biden administration take to address the root causes of illegal immigration?
• How will border sheriffs respond to any changes in illegal immigration trends?

These are all questions that remain unanswered, but one thing is for sure: the issue of illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border is far from over.
