A southern Colorado television station reported yesterday that border patrol arrests along the U.S.-Mexico border are down for the fifth straight year. According to Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano, there has been a 17 percent drop in arrests between 2009 and 2010, due to increased enforcement along the border that is slowing illegal immigration. There are currently 20,500 border patrol agents stationed along the border, which is an all-time high.
