Arrests for illegally crossing the U.S. border from Mexico fell more than 6% in April to the fourth lowest month of the Biden administration, attributed to more enforcement in Mexico.
Troy Miller, Customs and Border Protection's acting commissioner, noted that increased enforcement and cooperation with other countries led to lower numbers, with southwest border encounters not increasing.
Authorities granted entry to 41,400 people in April at land crossings with an online appointment app, CBP One, totaling more than 591,000 since its introduction in January 2023.
