My host in Mexico took me into a crappy little store. It had an unfinished concrete floor, and an accumulation of sand drifted against the walls. (This is unusual as I witnessed store clerks and business owners sweeping the street and sidewalks in front of their businesses.) He took a comic book off a pile and handed to me. It was free. It detailed how to get across the desert to America. In pictures it told the viewer what to carry and how to avoid US patrols. It had a section on what to say when you were captured. If I recall, you feared for your life at home. You were fleeing persecution...I don’t recall it all. I can’t recall who published it. According to my host there were numerous NGO’s who would supply water, food, transport, other support and lawyers where necessary.
The thing to do is find whoever is financing the NGO’s and shut them down.
I have a friend that lives in Arizona and would explore the desert. He always carried plenty of water for himself in an emergency, and would give gallon jugs to illegals that he came across.
“As a Christian it is my duty to give them water.”

“Then I call Border Control and give them the GPS coordinates of where I came across them.”
USAID was the biggest and it is shut down now. Maybe that is why the crossings are almost completely shut down...
