Border Patrol has experienced a 50% drop in encounters over the past two days, according to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Fears of a surge reached a fever pitch ahead of Title 42's end last Thursday, as border towns braced for the worst on Friday and anticipated a large influx of migrants crossing the border. Mayorkas indicated that it was still early to tell whether the influx has peaked."Over the past two days, the United States Border Patrol has experienced a 50% drop in the number of encounters versus what we were experiencing earlier in the week," Mayorkas told CNN's State of the Union.
A senior U.S. Customs and Border Protection official at the agency’s Washington headquarters previously told the Washington Examiner that 9,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended on Thursday alone. Mayorkas and President Joe Biden received criticisms from Republicans and Democrats alike, but the secretary argued that DHS took steps to prepare for the fallout of Title 42's demise.
Mayorkas also underscored the importance of the Biden administration's messaging to potential illegal immigrants.
