ICE Releases Enforcement Statistics for First 100 Days of Trump’s Second Term

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Tuesday released immigration data and arrest totals for the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term.

According the ICE, the agency has arrested 66,463 illegal aliens and deported 65,682 illegal aliens from the U.S. since Trump took office in January.

Three out of four of those arrests were of illegal aliens with criminal records or charges lodged against them, ICE said.

The criminal records of the aliens arrested include convictions or charges for 9,639 assaults, 6,398 DWIs or DUIs and 1,479 weapon offenses, according to ICE.

“The brave men and women of ICE protect our families, friends and neighbors by removing public safety and national security threats from our communities,” said ICE acting Director Todd Lyons on Tuesday.

“During President Trump’s first 100 days, ICE alone has arrested over 65,000 illegal aliens — including 2,288 gang members from Tren de Aragua, MS-13, 18th Street and other gangs. Additionally, 1,329 were accused or convicted of sex offenses, and 498 were accused or convicted of murder,” Lyons said.

“We removed over 65,000 illegal aliens to countries across the world,” said Lyons. “We’re just 100 days into this administration and thanks to President Trump and Secretary Noem, ICE is using every tool at its disposal to enforce our country’s immigration laws and protect our communities.”

In addition to the enforcement action taken by ICE, the agency indicated that Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) arrested more than 1,000 illegal workers and pressed for over $1 million in fines against businesses that are alleged to have hired illegal workers.
