US EditionZero Migrants Released in May as Southwest Border Crossings Fall 93%
- In May 2025, U.S. Customs and Border Protection recorded 8,725 illegal crossings at the southwest border with zero migrants released into the U.S.

- Border Patrol officials noted only 95 illegal alien encounters in the past 24 hours, the lowest daily figure ever recorded according to border czar Thomas Homan.

- The data suggest that current enforcement efforts and policies have greatly reduced illegal border crossings, though analysts caution the decline's permanence remains uncertain amid ongoing legal challenges.
