Despite rhetoric to the contrary, asylum-seeking families with legal representation appear for nearly 100% of their initial or all of their court appearances, according to a report from the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse.
On the heels of reports confirming that President Trump has ordered U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to conduct mass roundups of migrant families that have received deportation orders, TRAC’s new data shows nearly 100% of asylum-seeking families who have legal aid show up to their initial court appearances, and the subsequent court hearings.
TRAC is a non-partisan, Syracuse University-based project that tracks data from ICE and other federal agencies.
