DHS: We Still Have 'Relatively High Number of Encounters' on Border, But We've Had Increasing Surges 'for over Two Decades'

On Monday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s "Elizabeth Vargas Reports," DHS Assistant Secretary for Border and Immigration Policy Blas Nuñez-Neto stated that while there has been a decline in the number of encounters at the border from the numbers in the days before Title 42 expired, the number of encounters is "still a relatively high number of encounters." But "you were seeing these surges in migration happening with increasing regularity now for over two decades under presidents of both parties."
