Border Apprehensions Hit All-Time Low in June, White House Says
UNITED STATES, JUL 2 – Customs and Border Protection recorded 6,070 illegal immigrant encounters in June, a 93% drop from June 2024, with zero migrants released into the U.S. for the second consecutive month.
- In June 2025, U.S. Border Patrol reported a total of 6,070 migrant apprehensions, marking the lowest monthly tally ever recorded.
- This decline followed a January 2025 policy empowering border officials to deport migrants swiftly without asylum hearings under an emergency proclamation.
- Additional factors include troop deployments for border barriers, halted releases of apprehended migrants, and reduced daily encounters averaging just over 202 individuals.
- Customs and Border Protection stated June’s apprehensions were 89% lower than averages from 2021 to 2024, and border crossings along Texas dropped to a four-year low.
- These data suggest a significant decrease in illegal crossings and increased enforcement, with no migrants released into the U.S. after apprehension in June 2025.
