Border apprehension rates are now a national debate

Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 was the year in which CBP (Customs and Border Protection) apprehended the highest number of undocumented immigrants in the border territory ever reported.

Naturally, the fact that this happened just when there was a change of administrations at the beginning of the year does not go unnoticed in the eyes of a part of the local population, which blames President Biden and his team for the most alarming surge of illegal border crossings in the history of the US.

Clearly, the change of administrations, especially of two leaders with a diametrically opposed vision and stance on immigration, is an influential factor in the exponential increase of irregular migration levels.

However, it is also worth mentioning that there are other influential factors in the surge of illegal border crossings, such as:

• The health crisis caused by the global Coronavirus pandemic.
• The economic crisis in certain vulnerable territories.
• Natural disasters.
• Famine, war and corruption.

What is happening behind the border situation?

The border situation has undoubtedly become a gigantic challenge for the Biden administration and its plans related to the immigration sector. However, what has happened in the midst of the health crisis and what have been the real repercussions of the border situation?

Well, to answer this question, it is important to mention that the Biden administration, like the Trump administration, has used Title 42 to expel the vast majority of undocumented immigrants apprehended in the border territory in a matter of hours.

It is worth explaining that Title 42 is an extensive statute of the US Code that allows certain federal agencies to implement unconventional measures in the event of a sanitary emergency such as the global Coronavirus pandemic.

Under this statute, the US has deported most undocumented foreigners without due process on health risk grounds.

In fact, according to a recent report by The Washington Post, official figures show that 4 out of 5 undocumented immigrants were deported through Title 42 from March through August 2021.

Have current measures protected the borders?

It is important to understand that current measures have allowed the US government to manage the border situation to the best of its ability, within legal boundaries.

Thus, the reality is that, despite the fact that the country has faced an alarming surge of illegal border crossings, the vast majority of undocumented immigrants have been returned. In fact, a high percentage of FY 2021 border encounters were re-entry cases.

This is a pretty powerful message for anyone planning to begin their immigration journey soon. We say this because, on many occasions, lack of information can lead many people to make the risky decision to migrate irregularly, which never brings positive repercussions.
