Migrant encounters at southern border set new record for October: data
Fox News
Migrant encounters at the southern border in October hit a new record for the month, with over 240,000 migrant encounters -- dealing another blow to the Biden administration.
The number is down from the 269,735 encounters in September, which marked the highest monthly total ever. FY 23 saw a record 2.4 million encounters overall. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

The latest numbers show that, despite a broad strategy in place from the Biden administration after the end of Title 42 in May that it says combines "consequences" for illegal entry with expanded lawful pathways, numbers remain stubbornly high.
