DHS claims
success because most removals were “priorities”
WASHINGTON
(January 12, 2017) – The Center for Immigration
Studies new report analyzes the FY 2016 enforcement statistics from the
Office of Immigration Statistics (OIS), released by Department of
Homeland Security on the last work day of the calendar year, on the eve
of a holiday weekend. The deportation numbers credited to ICE are the
lowest since 2006.
Aliens removed
from the interior in 2016 have declined 73 percent from 2009, the year
President Obama took office; and, unfortunately for community safety,
there has been a 60 percent decline from the peak in interior criminal
alien removals in 2010.
Unlike in past
years, the annual enforcement reports contain only a fraction of the
important statistics that traditionally have been published on the work
of the immigration agencies. Past numbers allowed observation of
historical trends and comparisons that are more difficult to make now.
Jessica Vaughan,
the Center’s director of policy studies and author or the report,
lamented, “DHS discloses few actual statistics now, and even fewer
trends. Instead they claim success because most of those removed were
'priorities,' not because the agencies made any headway on the illegal
immigration problem. The new reports are of interest only to those who
believe that enforcement should be constrained as much as possible.
They are of no use to the rest of us who want to know what the DHS
agencies actually did all year with taxpayer funds.”
Key Findings
·
Deportations
credited to ICE in 2016 increased by two percent. All of the increase
was in cases of aliens arrested by the Border Patrol, not interior
enforcement.
·
Interior
deportations fell from 69,478 in 2015 to 65,322 in 2016, out of a
population of illegal aliens now estimated at 12 million.
·
Deportations of
criminal aliens fell from 63,127 in 2015 to 60,318 in 2016, out of an
estimated population of 2 million criminal aliens.
·
The number of
deportations under the Obama administration is not easily comparable to
prior administrations because of the number of border cases included,
but it certainly is not record-breaking, as Obama has claimed. The most
deportations occurred under the Clinton administration.
·
DHS maintains
that CBP arrests have always been a large share of ICE deportations,
but in fact this is a new development under the Obama administration.
In prior administrations only one-third of deportations credited to ICE
were border cases; now about two-thirds are border cases.
