But preliminary data obtained by the Post shows that there were fewer than 10,000 migrants crossing the border, a 93% decrease from the more than 128,000 people who streamed across last April. April's numbers follow February crossings of roughly 8,300 and March of barely 7,100. That was the lowest in at least a quarter century. Homeland Security sources tell the Post that monthly migrant encounter numbers are lower than the illegal crossings racked up on individual days during the Biden administration. (1:42:53–1:43:02)
