According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a database and research organization at Syracuse University that informs the public about federal government activities, representation in immigration court rose in the past few years, but around 35 percent of immigrants still go unrepresented; those numbers rise to nearly 70 percent for immigrants in detention and can reach 80-90 percent for certain communities.
