  • The immigration surge of the past few years has been the largest in U.S. history, surpassing the great immigration boom of the late 1800s and early 1900s, according to a New York Times analysis of government data.

The article from MSN, titled "Recent Immigration Surge Has Been Largest in U.S. History," discusses the unprecedented increase in immigration to the United States over the past few years. It highlights that the surge, which began around 2021, has surpassed previous records, driven by various factors including economic opportunities, political instability, and natural disasters in migrants' home countries. The piece details how this wave of immigration has strained border facilities, overwhelmed immigration courts, and sparked significant political debate. It also touches on the Biden administration's policies aimed at managing the influx, such as expanding legal pathways for migration while also attempting to deter illegal crossings. The article notes the diverse origins of the immigrants, with significant numbers coming from Central America, Venezuela, and Haiti, and discusses the economic implications, including labor market impacts and the challenges of integration for both the migrants and the communities they settle in.
