In recent years, unusually elevated numbers of migrants from countries of special interest reaching the U.S.-Mexico border have been found to match terrorism "watch lists". Such migrants are known as "special interest aliens" (SIAs). These migrants have citizenship in some 30 countries of concern in the Middle East, South Asia, and northern Africa where terrorist organizations are known to operate and extremist ideologies are ubiquitous.
Most White House immigration initiatives since 2017 — caps on visas and refugee admissions, improved overseas vetting, and the travel ban on seven countries — do not apply to this higher-risk flow across the U.S.-Mexico border.
Todd Bensman, the Center's Senior National Security Fellow and author of the post, said, "Europe has been repeatedly attacked in recent years by Islamic terrorists entering via migrant routes, and now we're intercepting more and more aliens on terror watch lists at our own southern border. The good news is that America doesn't have to go down Europe's path. There are concrete steps which lawmakers can and should take to avert terror attacks by border-crossers."
