President Joe Biden’s border deputies welcomed a record surge of economic migrants in April, shortly before they lifted the Title 42 barrier on May 11.
Alejandro Mayorkas’ Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the record inflow on May 17, saying that 137,374 migrants were admitted during the month, before the flood of roughly 40,000 migrants through the border in the days before May 11.
The April inflow exceeded the 135,211 migrants who were admitted in April 2022.
Biden’s April 2023 inflow is 87 times as many as were admitted by President Donald Trump in April 2020.
The April inflow number also excludes the roughly 50,000 migrants who were invited to take Biden’s parole pathways, and it excludes the roughly 60,000 young migrants who sneaked past the thinly monitored border. All together, Biden’s deputies have allowed 250,000 migrants in April. — or roughly two migrants for every three U.S. births.
Since January 2021, Biden’s deputies have admitted roughly 4.5 million migrants across the southern border.
