Trump Administration Grants Deportation Powers to ATF, DEA, U.S. Marshals, and ICE for 1.5 Million Migrants
Jan 24, 2025, 01:03 PM
The Trump administration has expanded the powers of federal law enforcement agencies to assist in deportations, granting agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and the U.S. Marshals Service the authority to arrest and deport illegal immigrants. This move, authorized by acting Homeland Security Secretary Benjamine Huffman, aims to increase the number of immigration-related arrests nationwide. Additionally, the administration has empowered Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to quickly deport approximately 1.5 million migrants who were allowed into the U.S. under temporary parole programs established by the Biden administration. These programs, including the CBP One app and initiatives for migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Haiti, have facilitated the entry of these individuals since 2023. The Trump administration's directives also include the termination of these parole programs and the expansion of expedited removal processes, which can now be applied nationwide to migrants who have been in the U.S. for less than two years.
