Since the launch of Operation Lone Star by Governor Greg Abbott in 2021, there has been a significant shift in the patterns of illegal immigration across the southern border of the United States. Initially, Texas accounted for 69% of all migrant arrests along the southern border, but this figure has now decreased to 34%. The operation's effectiveness in Texas has led to migrants, particularly Chinese nationals, seeking alternative entry points into the U.S. through California and Arizona. Federal statistics reveal a concerning rise in the number of Chinese migrants attempting to cross into the U.S., with over 43,000 Chinese nationals having crossed the southern border since the fiscal year 2023. Border Patrol officials have arrested 269 Chinese men in a single day at the San Diego border, highlighting the scale of this trend. Additionally, there are reports that some of these migrants have links to the Chinese Communist Party, raising national security concerns.
