# ICYMI: “California-Mexico border, once overwhelmed, now nearly empty”

The White House

In the latest indication of success from President Donald J. Trump’s unprecedented effort to secure the homeland, the Los Angeles Times writes that “migrant crossings have slowed to near a halt” along the California-Mexico border following years of unchecked illegal immigration.
From the article:

“But migrant crossings have slowed to a near halt, bringing a striking change to the landscape along the southernmost stretch of California.

Shelters that once received migrants have closed, makeshift camps where migrants waited for processing are barren, and nonprofits have begun shifting their services to established immigrants in the U.S. who are facing deportation, or migrants stuck in southern Mexico.

[…]

Border Patrol agents in the San Diego sector are now making about 30 to 40 arrests per day, according to the agency. That’s down from more than 1,200 per day during the height of migrant arrivals to the region in April.”
