Pres. Biden Deserves Credit for 'Improvements' on Migration Crisis at the Border, Psaki Says

White House press secretary Jen Psaki believed that President Joe Biden deserves credit for improving the migration crisis at the U.S. Mexico border.

Psaki's statement comes as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released images of an almost empty border facility in Donna, Texas.

Both events happened on Tuesday when Psaki also mentioned some of the notable accomplishments of the administration regarding the border surge, Mail Online reported.

It can be recalled that a group of Republican senators earlier visited the southern border where they labeled the situation in the area as "humanitarian, national security, and health crisis."

Republicans have also slammed the Biden administration, saying that the border surge stemmed from the president's political decision.

Jen Psaki on the Credit that Biden Should be Receiving

Jen Psaki issued the statement in her press briefing on Tuesday, noting that the president is eagerly working to undo the last four years of immigration policy under the Trump administration, The U.S. Sun reported.

Psaki then mentioned a list of accomplishments of the current administration. The press secretary highlighted the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) that nearly doubled their processing rate of unaccompanied migrant children on the border and reunited them with their families.

"Migration is a dynamic and evolving challenge, but the president has a plan, and we are working on it," said Psaki.

The U.S. Sun reported that the country had a significant increase in the number of migrants last February. By the end of March, the administration tapped Vice President Kamala Harris to lead the White House efforts to address the border issue.

Despite the milestones mentioned by Jen Psaki, the press secretary noted that the efforts in curbing the number of migrants attempting to enter the country continue.

DHS Releases Photos of Almost Empty Border Facility

As Psaki highlighted the efforts of the border agencies in the issue, the Biden administration, through DHS, released a photo of an empty migrant facility in Texas.

Fox News reported that the said facility in Donna, Texas was also the subject of the images in the recent months packed with migrants in pods.

The photos released showed see-through pens nearly empty, having a few unaccompanied minor migrants remaining.

The number of unaccompanied migrant children under the custody of CBP has significantly decreased by 88 percent from the end of March.

"The amount of time children spend in CBP custody is down 75 percent," Psaki said on the same day the photos were released.

Psaki noted that the migrant children are now spending 30 hours under CBP custody. At the end of March, the minors were reported to spend 130 hours under CBP custody.

"The progress we have made is dramatic," DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday.

Despite the accomplishments of the Biden administration, Psaki noted that the government is not yet done, emphasizing that there will be more work to be done concerning the issue on the border.

The DHS said Monday that the agency would continue to reunite migrant families in the coming weeks.
