Trump administration plans to deploy hundreds more federal agents to ramp up immigration enforcement across the country
- The Trump administration plans to deploy hundreds more federal agents nationwide to increase arrests of undocumented immigrants as of May 2025.
- This deployment follows White House pressure on the Justice Department to intensify immigration enforcement amid limited ICE resources and declining border crossings.
- The Justice Department targets 25 cities using FBI, ATF, DEA, and U.S. Marshals agents, sidelining some investigations to focus on immigration-related crime.
- FBI agents will form about 45% of the surge, while officials stated, quotas on ICE offices serve as a "floor, not a ceiling," reflecting a broad enforcement push.
- The expanded interior enforcement aims to fulfill Trump’s mass deportation promise and will include support from state National Guard units under CBP supervision.
