Sara Carter<\/a> posted an article today about the impact of President Trump’s policies on illegal border crossings on our southern border.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

U.S. Customs and Border Protection<\/a> (CBP) on Wednesday published their Fiscal Year 2020 statistics for Southwest border migration and enforcement<\/a>, reporting a substantial decrease in encounters with border crossers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The amount of CBP encounters with those illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border shrunk by 53% in FY 2020. According to the report, CBP encountered 458,088 people illegally crossing the border this past fiscal year, a stark contrast to the 977,509 reported in FY 2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…The COVID-19 pandemic\u2019s impact on the data was clear as day. A steep drop in border apprehensions was reported in April<\/a>, with only 16,182 apprehended border crossers in comparison to the 30,389 in March. The numbers, however, neared 30,000 by July.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Notably, President Donald Trump on March 21 ordered CBP to prohibit \u201cthe entry of certain persons who potentially pose a health risk, either by virtue of being subject to previously announced travel restrictions or because they unlawfully entered the country to bypass health screening measures.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In terms of demographics, the reports states that \u201csingle adult males from Mexico accounted for 56 percent of migrants encountered this year, a significant change from a FY19, when 64 percent of the encounters were individuals from the Northern Triangle countries.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not to mention, \u201csingle adults accounted for 77 percent of the total encounters this year, compared to 38 percent last year,\u201d according to the report.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the number of people illegally crossing the border decreases, the amount of illegal drugs coming across the border will also decrease. This is good news for America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
