In 2023, a slew of new records were set at the southern border as the Biden administration struggled to grapple with another year of massive migrant encounters.
Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.
The year started after December 2022 saw a record 252,000-plus encounters at the border with the Title 42 public health order, which allowed for the rapid expulsion of migrants at the border, still in place but facing a looming legal challenge before the Supreme Court.

In early January, the Biden administration announced a number of new measures to bring order to the border, while pushing Congress for more funding and immigration reform.
