Biden's fast-track asylum plan juices immigration courts
Briefly

Biden's fast-track system is at risk of being overwhelmed by Trump's mass deportation plan, potentially leading to extensive backlogs in immigration courts without more resources.
In fiscal 2025, immigration judges are on track to rule on 852,000 deportation cases - the largest number in a single year, outpacing previous records.
Currently, immigration courts see a 45% removal order rate, the highest since 2020, indicating a significant increase in the deportation pace.
With 1.7 million cases pending, a substantial portion of immigration court backlogs involve asylum applicants, highlighting a crucial area for judicial attention.
