Original Note:
USBP encounters at the Southwest Land Border exceeded 2M for the first time in 2022. Compared to 2022 reported encounters in 2023 have been reduced in every month. The Biden admin increased border restrictions & sent 1,500 more troops to the border earlier this year. https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters https://www.dhs.gov/news/2023/06/06/border-encounters-remain-low-biden-harris-administrations-comprehensive-plan-manage https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/02/politics/us-troops-border-migrant-surge/index.html https://apnews.com/article/immigration-border-biden-asylum-75d8c0e67d5521fb48ac04f6bf017a49
