Nearly 130k Illegal Immigrants Apprehended On Southern Border In April

Nearly 130,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended on the southern border in April, marking a slight decline from the previous month.

The unofficial report from Border Patrol, first obtained by Breitbart News, recorded 129,000 illegal immigrant apprehensions across the southwest border last month, marking a decline of 8,000 from March.

The figure brings the total number of illegal immigrant apprehensions for the 2024 fiscal year, which began in October 2023, to almost 1.2 million. The year is currently projected to surpass last year’s total apprehensions figure of 2.046 million, which would make it the third year in a row under President Joe Biden that the figure surpassed 2 million yearly apprehensions.
