The Federation for Immigration Reform (FAIR) group says that the number of illegal immigrants living in the U.S. has increased by more than 16% since early 2021 to 16.8 million.
"This estimate is also a 2.3 million increase from our end-of-2020 estimate, meaning the illegal alien population increased 16 percent nationwide during just the first two years of Joe Biden’s presidency," the report says.
The administration has countered, arguing that it is rebuilding an asylum system that was destroyed under the prior administration, and more recently has touted tougher enforcement measures at the border alongside expanded legal pathways. at the southern border in May, bringing the overall total of encounters this fiscal year to over 1.6 million so far.
FAIR acknowledges that accurately estimating the population of illegal immigrants can be murky and inexact, given the size and distribution of the population -- and that many live at least partially in the shadows. Many typical estimates are based on Census Bureau data. The Biden administration has faulted Republicans in Congress for the ongoing migrant crisis, and has argued that there is a need for a comprehensive immigration bill to fix what it says is a"broken" system.
