The border between Mexico and the U.S. in the Tucson Sector is experiencing a surge of illegal immigrants, which has strained the resources of the area. This has resulted in a decrease in the number of agents patrolling the border.
Right now in Ajo AZ Sector for the Border Patrol. Hundreds in custody on top of what was caught last night. Already getting reports of large numbers crossing and Border Patrol trying to respond. They are overwhelmed and this administration
is letting this happen with no support! pic.twitter.com/Kkqv3xq8h9— John Fabbricatore (@JohnE_Fabb) September 13, 2023
Instead of holding illegal immigrants, the agents are now focused on processing them and releasing them. Recent videos and pictures of the conditions in the facilities have caused outrage among Democrats and their supporters.
Despite the various challenges that the situation has presented, the number of immigrants illegally crossing into Arizona continues to increase.
According to reports, over 230,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended at the southern part of the border in August. This contradicts the claims made by the Biden administration, which says that it has been able to reduce the number of illegal crossings.
