Original Note:
This claim about undocumented migrants outpacing U.S. births is misleading. It's based on "encounters" data, which isn't a direct count of illegal entries. Actual numbers of unlawful entries are lower than births, and there's no precise count of undetected border crossings. https://www.11alive.com/article/news/verify/immigration/undocumented-illegal-migrants-aliens-entering-unauthorized-more-than-american-births-misleading/536-fed8fcd1-cab8-4ff3-88e8-48675db4f874)
