Recent statistics from the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) indicate that last month was the worst February in history for illegal border crossings, with apprehension totals 7.75% higher than the previous year. This increase comes after the cessation of Title 42, which allowed for the expulsion of illegal migrants. The Border Patrol chief has labeled illegal border-crossing a 'national security threat.' Over 9.2 million illegal immigrants have crossed the southern border since the Biden administration stopped construction of the border wall, ended the Remain in Mexico policy, and halted enforcement of immigration laws. Additionally, over 10,000 unaccompanied children were encountered at the Southwest border last month, highlighting concerns over the administration's border security policies. Nationwide encounters have increased by 121% and Office of Field Operations Southwest border encounters by 542% since February FY21. Furthermore, over 2 million known got-aways have been released into communities, raising security concerns.
Last month, CBP encountered over 10,000 unaccompanied children at our Southwest border. Secretary Mayorkas’ refusal to secure the border is endangering children. https://t.co/t8voKK48wp https://t.co/YfwC7iMv0n

This is the reality of President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas' border crisis. Every day, thousands of unvetted illegal aliens are entering the U.S., yet the Biden admin claims the border is secure. https://t.co/nv2otJQkgc
Biden’s open border has led to more than 9 million illegal crossings & 2 million known got-aways being released into your communities. The harrowing reality of those numbers is that ISIS terrorists may be among them, & we may only know after they’ve attacked. @VictoriaCoates https://t.co/Op8ARlPbvs
On President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas' watch, there have been over 9 million border encounters nationwide–that's more illegal aliens entering this country than the entire population of New York City.
9.2 MILLION illegal immigrants crossed the southern border since President Biden stopped construction of the border wall, ended the Remain in Mexico policy, & halted enforcement of our immigration laws. Every one of these policies must be reinstated to get that number to zero.
The numbers don't lie–Secretary Mayorkas' border crisis continues to spiral out of control. Check out the latest startling stats ⬇️ https://t.co/pFr0i5sJoH
CBP’s encounter stats were released, and yes, they’re bad. Last month’s apprehension totals were 7.75% higher than last February, when agents could rely on Title 42 to expel illegal migrants in lieu of detaining them or releasing them. https://t.co/BeLfEiberE
