Rural Migration News: Migrant Buses
Over 7,000 migrants a day entered the US and applied for asylum in September 2022, bringing total encounters or apprehensions just inside the Mexico-US border to over 2.2 million for FY22.
The Biden administration allowed over a million migrants seeking asylum to enter the US in its first 18 months. Another 1.7 million migrants were returned to Mexico under Title 42, including some who were returned multiple times.
