While Americans celebrate Christmas, multiple cities across the country brace for what will happen if the Supreme Court decides to end Title 42 as federal border officials report a record number of illegal immigrant crossings at the U.S.–Mexico border.

On Dec. 23, data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection showed that, in November, the agency recorded 233,740 migrant encounters across the southern border, which stretches almost 2,000 miles.
