A migrant family from Peru walks on the Mexico side of the Rio Grande after crossing the river late last week shortly after Title 42 ended and being turned away by the National Guard in El Paso.
In the days before Title 42 ended late Thursday night, immigration agents had about 10,000 encounters a day with migrants at the southern border. Since Friday, that number has dropped to about 5,000 a day. On Friday, border officials from El Paso to McAllen said the end of Title 42 was smooth and the number of migrants crossing and being released from federal custody was below what they had expected. Federal officials had predicted that up to 13,000 migrants per day would cross the border after Title 42 ended.
