The Guardian has analyzed data from the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agencies dating back to Donald Trump’s inauguration. Trump campaigned on a platform of mass deportation, and since assuming office, his administration has significantly altered immigration enforcement policies nationwide.

Using biweekly published data from ICE, The Guardian is tracking the number of individuals arrested, detained, and deported under the current administration. This ongoing review highlights the scale and impact of immigration enforcement actions taken during Trump’s tenure.
