President Joe Biden’s administration has a low deportation rate for illegal aliens arriving at the U.S. borders, with only a 4.4 percent chance of being deported within a year.
This contrasts with the higher deportation rates during former President Donald Trump’s term.
Lora Ries from the Heritage Foundation criticized DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’s claim of record deportations, stating that most encountered illegal aliens have been released. (Trending: Chilling Arrest Footage of Trump Co-Defendant Provides Glimpse Into Jack Smith Probe)
ICE deported fewer than 4,000 illegal aliens a month from the U.S. interior in Fiscal Year 2023, compared to an average of 7,000 during Trump’s presidency.
This has led to criticism of Biden’s immigration enforcement approach.
“Alejandro Mayorkas can’t play it both ways,” Border Security and Immigration Center at the Heritage Foundation director Lora Ries said.
“He’s already publicly admitted that they’ve released at least 70 percent of the 10+ million illegal aliens encountered by Customs and Border Protection in the past three years.”
“He can’t then go portray himself as a secretary of immigration enforcement based on deportations, especially when you examine the numbers to scale,” Ries said.
“The American people stopped believing his lies long ago.”
“President Trump stood for American sovereignty and proudly enforced our laws,” National Immigration Center for Enforcement (NICE) president RJ Hauman said.
“A country that doesn’t properly deport illegal aliens is no country at all,” he added.
“Joe Biden is derelict in his duties as president.”
