#shorts Mayorkas: “Has led to a more than 95 percent drop in the number of encounters of individuals from those four countries at our Southern border. So, that is a model of building lawful pathways as well as delivering consequences.”

Lankford: “But as you and I both know, the numbers continue to climb. Total numbers from those countries, the numbers have dropped dramatically, but the total numbers continue to go up. For this fiscal year, for just the six months of this fiscal year, it’s about 160,000 higher than last year. Last year was a million more higher than the year before. So, the numbers still continue to climb total numbers. What I’m trying to figure out is for this circumvention of lawful pathways regulation that you’re planning to implement across the board, do you expect this 95 reduction that you’ve seen in those identified countries after it’s implemented? If so, when is it going to be implemented?”

Mayorkas: “… That’s the model that has worked in the past, that we intend to build upon, and we are indeed building upon.”
