Trump administration fails to meet its goal of deporting one million people per year

The Trump administration has not met its goal of deporting one million migrants annually, with 980,000 deportations in 18 months. Most deportees were intercepted at the border, and only 31% had criminal records. Despite increased funding and a rise in interior deportations, the administration's efforts have not produced the expected results. Voluntary departures have surged, but claims of three million immigrants leaving the U.S. are deemed unlikely. The report highlights discrepancies in the administration's narrative regarding deportations and criminality rates among those removed.
