"National Emergency. Conservatives need to get over the fear of using the powers that are there to get stuff done. Oh no, they might call us Nazi."

Agreed. But I would state that conservatives aren't afraid of using legitimate power. "Republicans" OTOH, typically are.

The National Emergency:

In FY 2018, an average of more than 33,000 were apprehended on the southern border EVERY month.
In FY 2019, as of the end of Feb, the average is more than 53,000 apprehensions, EVERY month.

**** Keep in mind, these numbers represent those who were caught (apprehended). How many were not caught? ****

1. Fiscal Year 2019 Projected is based on the current 5 month (Oct - Feb) average and does not assume an increase in that average...which more than likely will occur.
2. For the Las Cruces (NM) station, see El Paso Sector.
3. These numbers represent Apprehensions (wind up in our country) and do not include Inadmisibles (generally turned away at points of entry).
