Newly released data shows deportations plummeting under Joe Biden. Biden is deporting 71 percent fewer criminal aliens than President Trump, according to the Center for Immigration Studies.
Our Take:
- President Trump kept Americans safe by deporting criminal illegal immigrants.
- Biden is opposed to immigration enforcement. He campaigned on allowing illegal immigrant drunk drivers to stay in the country.
- Biden’s open borders policies are putting Americans at risk. Every crime committed by an illegal immigrant is an avoidable crime.
The Center for Immigration Studies found that in the first nine months of the Biden Administration, ICE removed 16,351 locally arrested criminal aliens. That was down from 55,870 such removals that occurred during the same period in 2019 under the Trump Administration.
In Howard County (Texas), Biden policies have led to just half the number of criminals convicted of homicides being removed before. There were also steep drops in removals of criminals convicted of assault, burglary, drugs, larceny and sex offenses.
According to records from ICE, the number of removals nationally declined from 186,000 in Fiscal Year 2020 to 59,000 in Fiscal Year 2021.
By comparison, ICE arrests increased 37.6 percent in Trump’s first few months in office as he prioritized enforcing the law.
