Biden Administration Reports Significant Drop in Illegal Border Crossings

New pathways for lawful entry introduced amid Republican criticism of expanded immigration programs.

Illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border have reached their lowest levels since the start of the Biden administration.
The Biden administration has introduced new programs allowing migrants to enter the U.S. through legal channels, such as the CBP One app and CHNV parole program.
Republicans argue these measures are politically motivated and bypass Congressional authority on immigration policy.
The CHNV program, designed for migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, has faced suspension due to fraud concerns.
Regional processing centers have been established in several Central and South American countries to manage migrant applications.
