Over 1,500 people crossed the U.S.–Mexico border illegally into El
Paso, Texas in the early hours of Dec. 12, according to video from the
scene and local media, in what reports say could be one of the biggest
single crossings ever in the region.

Footage from the border shared on social media by news outlet El Paso
Matters showed a massive group of migrants trekking through the water
toward the other riverbank overnight.

Once on the other side of the river, the illegal aliens waited in a
long line to be processed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
officials.

Video showed people huddling by fires trying to keep warm as they
awaited processing, while other footage—a pan across the line of
people waiting in line—revealed just how massive the group was that
crossed the border into the United States.

CBP said in a statement on Monday that the jump in encounters in the
El Paso sector meant that Border Patrol agents from other sectors had
been called in to assist with processing.
Sleeping on the Streets

The individuals who crossed Sunday night were part of a group migrants
who were escorted by Mexican state police from the city of Jiménez to
Juárez in a caravan of 20 buses, according to El Paso Matters, which
estimated the total size of the group that crossed overnight at over
1,500 people.

The aliens said they were from Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Peru, according
to the outlet, which estimated that this may have been the largest
single border crossing in the region in history.

More than 5,600 illegal aliens were held as of Dec. 13 in the Border
Patrol Central Processing Center, according to a city of El Paso
dashboard. The center has a capacity of around 3,500.

Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) said in a Twitter post that the
processing center was filled beyond capacity and that some people were
sleeping on city streets.

“Migrants sleeping on the streets of El Paso! This is what the New
Ellis Island looks like: 611 migrants out on the streets because the
NGOs are out of capacity; every Border Patrol agent in processing
centers overcapacity with 5,000 folks. This is exactly what Democrats
wanted.”

Republicans have long accused the Democrats of advocating for an
open-borders policy, though the Biden administration has repeatedly
denied this claim.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has acknowledged that
the situation along the southern border is “difficult,” while
insisting that the Biden administration wants a “safe, legal, and
orderly immigration system that is based on our bedrock priorities: to
keep our borders secure, address the plight of children as the law
requires, and enable families to be together.”

Mayorkas said recently that Republican rhetoric claiming that the
“border is open” was helping fuel the influx.

“The political cry that the border is open is music to the smugglers’
ears, because they take that political rhetoric and they market it” to
desperate migrants, Mayorkas told The Dallas Morning News.

Still, when President Joe Biden took office, one of his first actions
was to cancel the Trump-era “Remain in Mexico” policy.

That rule meant that asylum-seekers were required to remain in Mexico
while their claims for asylum were processed, with figures showing
that the policy discouraged false asylum claims and decreased the flow
of illegal immigration.
‘Major Surge’

Peter Jaquez, acting chief patrol agent of the El Paso sector, which
covers 264 miles of border between the United States and Mexico, said
that the sector experienced a “major surge” in unlawful border
crossings in recent days.

“Over the weekend, the El Paso Sector experienced a major surge in
illegal crossings, with a 3-day average of 2,460 daily encounters,
primarily through the downtown area of El Paso,” Jaquez said in a post
on Twitter.

“We will continue to keep the public informed as the situation
evolves,” he added.

CBP said in a Monday post on Facebook that, over the past 48 hours,
there had been over 16,000 illegal alien encounters at the border.

That’s an average of 8,000 people per day caught trying to cross the
border illegally.
Officials Brace for Surge of Illegal Aliens

U.S. officials are bracing for what could be an even bigger surge of
illegal aliens crossing over the southern border as the Title 42
restriction that were enacted under former President Donald Trump are
set to end on Dec. 21.

The Department of Homeland Security estimates that 9,000 to 14,000
migrants could try to enter the country illegally each day when the
policy ends.

Created as part of the Public Health Service Act under President
Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944, Title 42 was designed to prevent the
introduction of contagious diseases in the United States.

The policy was issued by the Trump administration in 2020 at the
beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
