FIRST ON FOX: More than two dozen governors are calling on President Biden to provide “honest, accurate, detailed information” about the ongoing migrant crisis at the southern border, including where migrants are moving to and data on removals and asylum claims — as they warn that states are facing “staggering” costs related to the crisis.
“As a result of your policies which incentivize illegal immigration, our states are carrying the burden of both the years-long surge in illegal border crossings and cartels’ coordinated trafficking of drugs and human beings,” the 25 governors led by Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte, say in a letter to Biden.
“States are on the front lines, working around-the clock responding to the effects of this crisis: shelters are full, food pantries empty, law enforcement strained, and aid workers exhausted,” they say. “As governors, we call on you to provide honest, accurate, detailed information on where the migrants admitted at the southern border are being relocated in the United States, in addition to comprehensive data on asylum claim timelines and qualification rates, and successful deportations.”
“Analysts estimate the annual net cost ofillegal immigration for the United States at the federal, state, and local levels is at least $150.7 billion. Statesare forced to provide financial, educational, and medical support to migrants entering our country illegally – support that is skyrocketing in cost due to record inflation and the unprecedented influx of migrants into our states. The financial impact on the states is staggering, and it is our hardworking citizens who shoulder that burden,” the governors wrote to Biden.
“The crisis at the southern border extends to every state. I’m leading a 25-state effort to press @JoeBiden for honest and detailed information on who is entering the country illegally and where they’re relocating,” Gov. Gianforte wrote, sharing a copy of the letter.

“CBP has apprehended 5.8 million illegal migrants at the southern border since @JoeBiden took office. That’s 5x the population of Montana. We’re demanding answers,” Gianforte declared in another post.

Fox News reporter Bill Melugin announced Tuesday morning that CBP has confirmed there were over 35,000 illegal alien encounters at the southern border over a four-day period, between Friday to Monday.

NEW: Per CBP sources, in the last 24 hours, Border Patrol apprehended over 8,000 illegal immigrants, & when combined w/ CBP ports of entry, there were a staggering 9,700+ migrant encounters across the border in one day. Highest day on record was 10,000+ in May before T42 ended.

These border numbers are getting astronomically high and are fast approaching the all time record numbers we saw in May. September numbers are on track to potentially set a new all time record, & DHS still hasn’t released August numbers, which will be 230,000 – highest of 2023. https://t.co/7EjEcyY74O
