Georgia took in a likely record-breaking number of migrants seeking asylum in May, joining other states such as New York, New Jersey, and Illinois.
That’s according to immigration court data showing where migrants with new deportation cases aimed to settle, as compiled by Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC). In a report published last month, TRAC notes that most individuals newly in deportation proceedings are migrants who entered the U.S. at the southern border without authorization. They will have to appear in immigration court to show they are eligible for asylum or other forms of deportation relief.
