Original Note:
This data is misleading. It only goes through September 2023 and excludes 2024, which is what Walz was talking about. For example, encounters in August 2024 were less than half of May 2019. Soon the Border Patrol will report on FY 2024 and it will show the huge decline. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/10/01/migrant-encounters-at-u-s-mexico-border-have-fallen-sharply-in-2024/
