We all know the southwest border saw the worst border crisis on record in FY 2022. But an untold story? The border crisis has headed to the northern border as well.
Illegal encounters skyrocketed from 32,000 in FY 2020 to over 109,000 in FY 2022 at the northern border. Illegal immigrants from over 20 countries were encountered.
And the situation is only getting worse. Just 25 days into the fiscal year, one northern border sector has already encountered 25% of their total encounters from the year before. This surge comes after “a significant amount of agents from the northern border have been redeployed to the southern border.”
Upward Trend Continues: 25 days into October & Swanton Sector #BorderPatrol has encountered nearly 25% of the 1,065 total encounters for Fiscal Year 2022. Our Agents work hard round-the-clock to keep our country & communities safe. Thank you for everything you do! @USBPChief pic.twitter.com/7dP9b8L2Ze

Where’s Maggie Hassan? Where’s Mark Kelly? Voting against hiring 18,000 Border Patrol agents, against Title 42 three times, and against the border wall.
The fentanyl crisis has already turned every state in the country into a border state. Now, things are only getting worse as Democrats aid and abet the worst border crisis in history.
