The United States is set to reopen four legal border crossings with Mexico after a decrease in illegal immigration allowed for the reallocation of personnel. The crossings include an international bridge in Eagle Pass, Texas, two in Arizona, and one near San Diego, California. This move comes as U.S. border authorities experienced a near-record high of migrant apprehensions in December but have since seen a decline. U.S. and Mexican officials have committed to working together to manage migration, and Mexico has increased its immigration enforcement efforts. The reopening is expected to positively impact the economies of both nations.
