Michael Guest (R-MS) revealed that Chief Raul Ortiz of the Border Patrol had disclosed in a briefing weeks earlier that the sharp decline in border apprehensions would soon return to historically high levels seen since President Joe Biden took office.<\/p>\n<h3>The Fragile Equilibrium on the Border<\/h3>\n<p>Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Border and Immigration Policy Blas Nunez-Neto testified that the Biden administration was &#8220;encouraged&#8221; by the drop in illegal entries recently but &#8220;clear-eyed&#8221; that the reasons people were migrating across the Western Hemisphere had not changed. &#8220;This is a fragile equilibrium that we have on the border, and it could be upset in the future for sure,&#8221; Nunez-Neto said.<\/p>\n<p>A senior U.S. Customs and Border Protection official agreed with Ortiz. &#8220;There [are] still [immigrants] there in Mexico. I believe they&#8217;ve taken kind of a wait-and-see approach to see how this pans out,&#8221; said Benjamine \u201cCarry\u201d Huffman, CBP&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nycs-rikers-island-prison-faces-humanitarian-crisis-amid-staff-shortages\/\" title=\"NYC\u2019s Rikers Island Prison Faces \u2018Humanitarian Crisis\u2019 Amid Staff Shortages\">acting deputy commissioner<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>What Lies Ahead in Congress<\/h3>\n<p>Rep.
