5,000 illegal immigrants released every day into US, admin officials privately tell lawmakers
Fox News
The Biden administration is currently releasing around 5,000 illegal immigrants each day, in addition to the 670,000 illegal aliens who evaded Border Patrol last fiscal year.
Lawmakers have also been told there is an average of 5,000 illegal immigrants released each day to non-governmental organizations (NGOs), who provide migrants with assistance and will sometimes help them get to their destinations. If that pace holds throughout the entire year that would be over 1.8 million illegal entrants in that timeframe.

Meanwhile, at the ports of entry, an average of 1,600 migrants are being processed and released via the use of humanitarian parole each day under the CBP One app. That authority is set by Congress to be used on a "case-by-case basis" for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit. Republicans have sought to limit the use of the authority, claiming the administration is abusing it — something officials have denied repeatedly.
