Tijuana, BC- Irregular crossings of Mexicans into the United States through southern San Diego decreased 14% in recent months, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The reports from May, the month in which the administration of US President Joe Biden ended Title 42 (express deportations) and continued with the implementation of the Title 8, 5 thousand 234 compatriots were counted who were detained in the south of San Diego and expelled to the national territory.
While in June the figure dropped to 4 thousand 525 returnees from that same county, either alone or in families.

The director of Attention to Migrants in Tijuana, Enrique Lucero Vázquez, explained that this reduction is due to the fact that the United States will penalize Mexican migrants and other nationalities with a five-year ban to enter their country, and their chances of obtaining the humanitarian asylum or other protection will be few.

Likewise, he attributed the drop in irregular crossings by Mexicans to the fact that the process to request humanitarian asylum is through the CBP One application, where 385 appointments are made daily to eradicate the backlog.
In this system they are informed of the day, time and gate where they must appear to start the procedure safely and validly.

“The decrease is due to the campaign that the United States has carried out to discourage these irregular crossings, when Title 42 ended they began with an aggressive campaign where it says if you cross them, you will be expelled under Title 8,” said Lucero Vázquez.
