deportable aliens located at border sites other than the Southwest has
declined by 17,000 per year, or by 39%, including a historic low total of 17,680

of illegal immigrants in the US, the number of deportable illegal aliens located
away from the border has declined by 14,000 per year, or12% during the Bush

employment has risen each year since FY 2003, 84% of arrests characterized as
?worksite arrests? are of the illegal alien workers rather than their employers.
