How have immigration numbers at the southern border changed under the Trump administration compared to the Biden administration?
There has been a dramatic decline in border apprehensions since President Trump took office. Comparing January 2024 to January 2025, there were 100,000 fewer people being apprehended at the southern border - a significant decrease. While the Biden administration's executive order from June 2024 had begun to reduce numbers somewhat, the decrease has accelerated substantially under Trump's leadership. This reflects a major shift in immigration enforcement and border policy between the two administrations, with the Trump administration's messaging and policy changes having a measurable impact on border crossing attempts.
