Part 2/8:
Acting patrol chief Jeffrey Stalucker from the San Diego sector confirmed that enforcement efforts have paid off, allowing agents to re-engage in their traditional border duties rather than being overwhelmed by constant crossings. Stalucker emphasized that maximizing consequences—whether immigration penalties or criminal charges—has played a crucial role in deterring illegal entries. These steps seem to have stabilized the border situation significantly, echoing President Trump's campaign promise to halt illegal immigration at the border.
