By Mónica Cordero, Investigate Midwest/Report for America


Iowa averaged 919 immigration-related arrests per year during Trump’s first term, according to data from Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse or TRAC, which tracks immigration enforcement across the United States. It was lower than the 1,575 average during President Barack Obama’s first term.
