The border situation might improve for the Biden administration

After CBP stated that FY 2021 border apprehension rates were the highest ever reported, the fact that they are decreasing, even slightly, is quite positive news for the Biden administration.

This is because many of the current administration’s immigration plans have been delayed or even rejected due to the surge of illegal border crossings that has taken place since the late 2020s, but which intensified after Biden took office.

Therefore, it is possible that, if the border situation improves and border apprehension rates decrease, then the Biden administration will be able to make as much progress as it wants on the immigration system, especially when it comes to comprehensive immigration overhaul and lasting policies.
