Migrant criminal case referrals are up along Southwest border By Sandra Sanchez
	Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) reports that the number of cases referred to federal prosecutors exceeded 2,000 in April, up significantly from just 700 cases that were referred to criminal courts at the height of the pandemic in July 2020. The April data, the latest available, could signify a new policy or “practice decision,” by the Biden administration regarding those who try to illegally cross into the United States, TRAC researcher Austin Kocher told Border Report.
