The Trump administration is deporting 1,500 people per day and is on track to deport more than 400,000 people in his first year in office, The New York Times reported.
At least 180,000 people have been deported by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement under President Donald Trump, the Times said. Deportations have increased as ICE got a massive increase in funding from the “big, beautiful bill” signed into law.
At its current pace, ICE would deport more than 400,000 people, a sharp increase from the 271,000 people removed last year by ICE, though far short of the 1 million goal set by the Trump administration.
The Department of Homeland Security says the total number of deportations so far under Trump is 322,000, though that figure includes people who are turned around or quickly deported at U.S. borders by Customs and Border Protection, the Times said.
