Border Security
Republican Trump issued a series of executive orders on returning to the White House, which implemented a broader ban on refuge for immigrants on the southern border and sent troops to help with border security efforts.
By the end of the Democratic President, Biden’s rule, he had already taken some steps on some steps, which included similar sanctions and a pressure ban on the implementation of Mexico. It seems that these measures have successfully reduced traffic.
The US Border Patrol arrested 8,300 immigrants on the southern border in February, US government data shows that the lowest monthly level (monthly data are not available before 2000).
Three US officials told Reuters that the arrests on the US -Mexico border in March were similar or even lower. About 7,400 were arrested in the arrests, an official said.
Migrant arrests are often used as a proxy to estimate illegal crossing, though some immigrants do not even detect it.
According to US government data, the arrest of February 2024 in February 2024 was a tremendous reduction by returning to Trump by 141,000 migrants selected by 141,000 immigrants and under 29,000 in January.
Arrest and detain
The US Department of Homeland Security estimates that about 11 million immigrants lacked legal status in 2022, some analysts say, with 14 million. Trump said in December he wanted to deport all violators of immigration law.
Trump’s initial executive orders aim to enhance immigrants’ arrests in the United States illegally, but has yielded mixed results during his first month.
In February, Border Czar Tom Hoon said that during Trump’s first three weeks, the US immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested about 14,000 people. It is 667 daily – twice the average of the previous year but at a speed of a quarter of a million arrests annually – not millions.
Nevertheless, the ICE has put a wider net compared to Biden’s presidency, which has selected more non -criminals and people with final deportation orders, including those who come to the ice office for routine checks.
According to ice data, from mid -January to the end of March to the end of March, the number of immigrants increased by 500 % without the criminal records arrested and detained by snow.
The agency’s data shows that by March 23, the ICE had about 48 48,000 migrants.
The agency is trying to increase the bedside, and private jail companies have announced plans to open new facilities and enhance capacity, the ICE’s top official said.
The Trump administration has also flown immigrants to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba at the US Navy base, which has led to a legal challenge over their transfer out of the United States and in difficult situations.
Exile
The Trump administration has struggled to rise to exile levels, even as it has opened new ways to send Mexico and Central America to other nationalities.
Reuters deported 37,660 people during their first month’s post in February, which is far less than 57,000 monthly removal and return in the last full year of the Biden administration.
The data includes both ice “removal” and more informal US customs and Border Protection to Mexico.
The Trump administration has temporarily returned the Biden era extension for more than a million people in Venezuela and Haiti, which potentially expanded the ponds of people who could be deported.
The administration said it would cancel another form of legal status known by half a million Cuba, Haiti, Nicaravan and Venezuelan, known as parole on April 24.
Trump has said he is weighing similar moves to eliminate the status of Ukraine.
On March 15, Trump is known as the Alien Enemy Act, a federal judge, who is known as the Alien Enemy Act, to rapidly deport LL Salvador to rapidly deport Venezuela gang members on March 15, but the move continues to be continued.
The Trump administration has not yet released detailed exile data, which shows how many of the deported people were arrested by the ICE in the interior of the United States, as against those arrested on the border and quickly to deport.
A senior official of the Trump administration said that in the coming months, deportation was designed to increase because countries accept more exile. But preliminary data suggests that Trump can fight to compete with high rates of exile over the last year of the Biden administration when a large number of immigrants were caught crossing illegally, making them easier to deport.
