According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, an online organization that tracks immigration data, “relatively few immigrants face deportation based on alleged criminal activity.” In February, for example, the organization found that alleged criminal activity was cited in just 2% of the “notices to appear” in immigration court that were sent out by the government.
“These results add to the growing body of evidence that despite the current Trump administration’s rhetoric about targeting the ‘worst of the worst,’ its deportation enforcement is increasingly focused on noncitizens without criminal records,” read a TRAC report released in early April.
