This Memorial urges the United States Congress to provide more funding and attention to enhance public safety along the border between New Mexico and Mexico. It highlights concerns about a significant increase in illegal border crossings, citing millions of "encounters" reported by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and a record number of migrant apprehensions in December 2023. The Memorial also points to data from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) indicating a rise in arrests of noncitizens with criminal records at the border, listing various offenses such as assault, drug trafficking, and sexual offenses. In response to these perceived threats to New Mexico communities, the Memorial calls for robust measures, including strengthening the border and increasing enforcement, and requests that copies be sent to New Mexico's congressional representatives and other members of the U.S. Congress.
