How much of this is not-crossing without an asylum option available and how much is not actively seeking out Border Patrol agents in order to surrender?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
“The president’s actions are working because of their tough response to illegal crossings,” Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said at a press conference in Tucson, Arizona on Wednesday.
Mayorkas says the administration has doubled the number of expedited removals in the last three weeks, with more than 100 international repatriation flights to 20 countries.
So far on the California border, there’s been a noticeable shift: up until last month, the San Diego sector had been the place with most undocumented migrant crossings.
Just weeks ago, hundreds of migrants still waited in campsites scattered throughout California's Jacumba Valley, a remote area 80 miles east of San Diego.
But some people still cross the border and end up here — including a family with three small children NPR encountered at one of the sweltering desert camps.
Although the Biden administration touts these policies as a success, migrants continue to arrive at the border, although they stay on the Mexican side to ‘wait and see’ when to cross.
