Border Patrol says that a record 221,303 migrants were encountered at the Southern border in March - the highest level of the Biden administration - as Title 42 lift looms
Earlier on Friday, Customs and Border Protection said in a court filing that 221,303 migrants were encountered at the southern border in March - a figure 28 percent higher than March 2021 when 173,277 migrants were encountered.
In March 2020, just 34,460 migrants were encountered at the border.
The previous high was set in July last year, when 213,953 people were detained by CBP.
The filing was submitted with more than five weeks still to go before the Biden administration removes the Title 42 health authority over illegal immigrants.
