The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said roughly 350,000 undocumented immigrants have been deported in the seven months since President Donald Trump was sworn in for his second term in January 2025. The figure, disclosed by department officials on Thursday, provides the first nationwide snapshot of removals under the administration’s stepped-up enforcement agenda. The pace equates to an average of about 50,000 deportations a month, exceeding the monthly rate recorded during the previous Biden administration. Homeland Security officials said the increase reflects expanded use of expedited removal proceedings at the border and a wider deployment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in the U.S. interior. The White House has not ruled out additional measures, including possible use of military assets, as it pursues Trump’s campaign pledge to carry out mass removals.
