Federal immigration enforcement actions have significantly impacted the southern border, leading to a noticeable decrease in migrant crossings and widespread fear among undocumented workers. This has resulted in unusually quiet conditions along the border, with many workers choosing to remain at home to avoid detection. The absence of these workers is also affecting local agriculture, leaving farms empty and potentially impacting the economy of the region. The situation contrasts sharply with the national protests sparked by the increased immigration sweeps.
