Families detained at Mexico border in historic numbers; CBP is reportedly using flights to make room for them

U.S. Customs and Border Protection , the agency responsible for processing migrants who arrive at or between ports of entry, is now using flights to reduce overcrowding at a processing facility in McAllen, Texas, along the U.S. border with Mexico, according to a new Washington Post report.

CBP’s El Paso jurisdiction has seen an 1,800 percent increase year over year in illegal crossings by families, the largest such increase for any CBP jurisdiction in any category of border crossing, which also include apprehensions of unaccompanied minors and single adults. The Rio Grande sector, which includes the McAllen processing facility, has seen its share of migrant family crossings increase 240 percent year over year, according to CBP figures.

Detention facilities are overflowing with migrants and beds are at capacity. CBP has had to erect tents in the parking lots of processing facilities to cope with the influx. Shanahan announced on Friday that he was transferring an additional $1.5 billion from various coffers to a drug-fighting initiative that will be used to help finance a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border. The Pentagon already transferred $1 billion to finance wall construction in March. This follows a 35-day partial government shutdown earlier this year that resulted from a dispute over funding for a border wall. Congress ended up appropriating $1.

If only there was some way to solve this problem. Like stronger border protection or maybe a wall of some kind. Something that would encourage people to immigrate the legal way.
