Deportation rates have continued to remain low under President Joe Biden compared to his predecessor, with the administration removing less than 30,000 illegal aliens in the U.S. states in fiscal year 2022, according to the latest annual report (pdf) from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
ICE made 142,750 arrests and deported 72,177 illegal aliens in the 12 months ending on Sept. 30 last year. The deportation number was higher than the 59,011 deported in fiscal year 2021, which included several months of the Trump administration, but comparatively lower than the 185,884 deported in fiscal year 2020 and 267,258 in fiscal year 2019 (pdf).
