These rumors are absolutely false and yet another dangerous example of bad actors sharing bad information. The border is not open to illegal migration.DHS continues to enforce the nation's immigration laws. Individuals and families who attempt to enter the United States without authorization, and who are unable to establish a legal basis to remain in the United States, will be quickly removed and are subject to a minimum five-year bar on reentry as well as potential prosecution for repeated reentry.CBP is processing all noncitizens under Title 8 immigration authorities and generally placing noncitizens who cross the border unlawfully into Expedited Removal or Section 240 Removal Proceedings. Noncitizens who cross between the ports of entry or who present themselves at a port of entry without making a CBP One™ appointment are subject to the Circumvention of Lawful Pathways rule. This rule presumes asylum ineligibility for those who fail to use lawful processes, with certain exceptions.CBP has been executing the Department’s comprehensive plan to secure our borders and build a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system. This includes providing meaningful consequences for those who enter without authorization, placing such individuals into expedited removal proceedings in record numbers, and applying conditions on asylum eligibility through the new Circumvention of Lawful PathwaysFor more information on migrant numbers in El Paso, visit the City's migrant dashboard HERE.
