ICE On Pace For 1 Million Migrant Arrests In Four Years As GOP Eyes More Funding

By the end of Trump’s presidency, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is expected to have arrested almost one million undocumented immigrants, though this number falls short of his goal.

In their upcoming budget proposals, Republicans are calling for more funding and improved border security, which could lead to an increase in arrests. ICE is still in operation even though it no longer publishes daily arrest statistics; according to recent reports, more than 11,000 arrests have been made since January 20.

Although border apprehensions have decreased, the arrest rate is expected to increase. Capacity limitations and information leaks are among the difficulties encountered; the revelation of an ICE operation in Aurora, Colorado, which resulted in empty apartments and public protests, serves as an example. To protect its operations, ICE is considering limiting media access.
