Immigration cases down since June asylum orders issued, report finds
By Sandra Sanchez


The number of new immigration cases nationwide was about 100,000 in June — that’s down about 40,000 cases from May, according to Transaction Records Access Clearinghouse of Syracuse University, a nonprofit group that tracks court cases. The drop in cases is notable among citizens from Venezuela. In December 2023, Venezuelans made up one out of every five new immigration cases and totaled 54,549 that month, TRAC reports. But in June, the number of cases dropped by 76% to 13,085. Mexican nationals with U.S. immigration cases dropped 63% during that same time period from 44,650 to 16,302, TRAC reports.
