New Quotas for Immigration Judges as Trump Administration Seeks Faster Deportations By Laura Meckler |
|
The backlog in the immigration courts is approaching 700,000 cases, up from fewer than 225,000 in 2009, according to data from the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University.
