She claimed most Americans are focused on fixing the economy and recovering while only a small percentage are worried about the migrant surge.<\/p>\n<p>However, a poll conducted by Harvard University\/Harris Insights and Analytics in February found that 55 percent of Americans are opposed to the Biden administration\u2019s handling of the migrant crisis. This came after Biden used executive orders to rollback President Trump\u2019s strong border policies.<\/p>\n<p>The press secretary went on to claim the illegal immigration surge at the border is reoccurring and not a crisis. She said that immigration reform is rather a huge challenge the Biden administration was left with.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur calculation on that front is one, this is cyclical, we\u2019ve seen surges at the border,\u201d Psaki\u00a0 stated. \u201cEvery time it happens, it\u2019s bad until we do something to address it over the long-term with root causes, immigration reform\u2026it\u2019s going to keep happening.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Biden&#8217;s Press Secretary Jen Psaki complains about media attention on the border crisis, says &#8220;that wasn\u2019t really a crisis\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Q5O4U0o1Ex\">pic.twitter.com\/Q5O4U0o1Ex<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RNCResearch\/status\/1390401128630820872?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 6, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to recent figures, Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations have fallen to record low numbers with the agency deporting fewer than 3,000 illegal immigrants in April.

San Diego County has approved a plan to provide attorneys to immigrants facing deportation proceedings. The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, May 4, 2021 approved a $5 million, one-year pilot program. It would provide lawyers for free to those detained at Otay Mesa Detention Center, the local federal immigration detention facility. San Diego will be the first southern border county in the U.S. to provide such legal representation.
