The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released over 1,300 convicted criminal illegal aliens into the United States in the last three months of 2022.

Federal law enforcement reported a spike in encounters with illegal aliens convicted of crimes since President Joe Biden took office two years ago and reversed many Trump-era immigration policies that were responsible for stemming the flow of illegal aliens across the U.S.–Mexico border.
