Controversy Surrounds Karine Jean-Pierre's Comments on Biden's Border Policies.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that the Biden administration's "parolee" program for asylum seekers from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela has decreased illegal migration by more than 90%. However, critics slammed her for the claim, pointing out that enforcement encounters involving citizens of the four countries targeted by the program had only dropped by 84%. The program has allowed 30,000 asylum seekers who followed the legal application process to be admitted to the US each month, contributing to an overall drop in enforcement encounters at the border.
