Data shows 1 in 4 immigration arrests happen in Texas, where about 1.6M immigrants illegally live
ICE arrests in Texas have more than doubled under Trump, with 59% involving non-criminal cases, driven by state laws and Operation Lone Star enforcing immigration crackdowns.
- Texas Tribune analysis found U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's average daily arrests in Texas more than doubled from 85 under Biden to 176 under Trump, with 24% of 138,068 nationwide arrests earlier this year in Texas.
- Texas lawmakers and the governor have approved over $11 billion for border enforcement and mandated sheriff agreements with ICE this year, boosting arrests.
- Data show arrests of people without convictions rose from 42% under Biden to 59% under Trump, while daily arrests jumped about 30 percentage points in the ICE regions that include Houston and Dallas.
- After prosecutors dismissed the case, ICE deported a woman to Mexico on Oct. 1 and deported Yony Perez‑Oduardo in the past month, while Luis Medrano followed his wife leaving their four U.S.-citizen children behind.
- The data suggest deportation quotas push authorities beyond convicted criminals, while legal observers note the Trump administration stopped publishing detailed immigration data and removed some DOJ reports soon after taking office.
