According to ICE’s most recent figures, fewer illegal immigrants are being deported from the US, with over 23,000 of those deportees having criminal convictions. Less than 30,000 illegal immigrants were deported during the fiscal year 2022.
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued its annual ICE report as the long weekend drew to a conclusion, demonstrating a welcome drop in interior immigration enforcement compared to previous years. According to data from 2017 to 2019, these cutbacks are large and long overdue.

In spite of the fact that there are between 10 and 20 million illegal immigrants living in the country, just 0.3% of them, or around 28,000 people, were deported by ICE officials last year.
Monthly deportations of illegal immigrants living in the heartland of America have significantly decreased during the previous several years. In contrast to the approximately 8,000 illegal people that ICE officials used to expulse each month, they now only expel around 2,350.
ICE is cracking down hard on illegal immigrants who have been found guilty of crimes, deporting almost 23,000 of them in the last year, a dramatic decrease from FY 2018 when 73k were done so. This means that ICE is placing more emphasis on making sure these people are held accountable for their crimes.
The Department of Homeland Security has significantly decreased interior deportations by nearly 70% under President Biden. Nearly 100.000 illegal immigrants were removed from US interior areas in FY 2018; this figure is currently lower than ever.
A new report from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sheds light on our country’s attempts to resolve immigration concerns by outlining the scale of removals from both inside American borders and from illegal immigrants who were captured after entering U.S. territory.
Only 28,100 of the 72,100 illegal immigrants deported by the US in FY 2022 were individuals living in American neighborhoods. The rest were from those who had just arrived recently at American borders.
The Biden Administration will keep working to shield unauthorized immigrants from ICE enforcement actions in 2022. Among other things, this entails relaxing internal immigration regulations so that the majority of people living without documents may stay in safety and security inside American borders.
For US taxpayers, deportations provide a tremendous cost-saving opportunity. According to studies, it would cost around six times as much to deport every illegal immigrant now living in the country as it would to keep them there.
