Why this verdict View evidenceHide evidence
Why we checked itSpecific figure attributed to Pew Research Foundation about illegal immigration during Biden administration — verifiable against Pew's actual estimates and widely contested in public debate
What we foundThe figure '14 million' corresponds to the total stock of unauthorized immigrants in the U.S. in 2023 (per Pew Research Center), not the number who entered during the Biden administration; the net increase attributable to the Biden years is estimated at roughly 3–6.7 million depending on methodology.
