Trump administration unveiled a new plan to dismiss asylum claims for potentially hundreds of thousands of migrants in the United States, aiming to expedite their deportation. According to sources familiar with the matter, the policy targets individuals whose claims are deemed legally deficient, subjecting them to fast-track removal without hearings before an immigration judge. This initiative builds on earlier expansions of expedited deportation procedures, now applicable to undocumented immigrants who cannot prove continuous residence in the U.S. for two years or more. The administration has also terminated protections for migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, affecting an estimated 300,000 individuals. The policy shift follows a Supreme Court ruling on June 23, 2025, allowing the administration to deport migrants to third countries not their own, lifting a lower court order that required individuals to challenge potential harms. Since February 28, 2025, over 26,700 individuals have faced removal proceedings, with ICE targeting a daily arrest goal of 3,000. The plan aligns with the administration’s broader immigration crackdown, with officials planning to implement changes by late July 2025. No specific data on immediate deportations under the new policy has been released, and the administration continues to coordinate with federal agencies to manage the process.
