Border Arrests in July Drop to Low Under Biden
Briefly

The July arrest numbers are set to represent the lowest monthly apprehensions under the Biden administration, a drastic decrease from the record highs observed before.
The drop in arrests followed the Biden administration's imposition of stringent restrictions on asylum in June, aiming to deter illegal border crossings by quickly returning migrants to their home countries or Mexico.
The declining arrest numbers could present a positive narrative shift for the Biden administration as they face criticism over their handling of border issues, particularly in the lead-up to the November elections.
While the current numbers remain higher than most of President Trump's term, they align more closely with typical border crossings during his presidency, offering perspective on the situation.
