In a news release on Friday evening, the federal government announced record-breaking immigration numbers for November. According to the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) report, there were 233,740 migrant encounters in November, which is the highest number ever recorded for that month and a large increase over last November's 174,845 encounters. This surge in immigration is an indication of the strength of the U.S. economy and its ability to attract foreign workers from around the world who are looking for better opportunities and higher wages than they can find at home. This influx of immigrants also helps to fill gaps in labor shortages across various industries in the United States, providing businesses with much needed workers while also providing immigrants with jobs that help them support their families back home. The record-breaking immigration numbers also reflect America’s long history as a nation of immigrants and its commitment to welcoming people from all walks of life who are looking for a better life here in the United States. It is this spirit of openness and acceptance that has made America great throughout its history and will continue to do so into the future as more people come here seeking opportunity and prosperity.
