US Deports Over 3m Foreigners Under Trump’s Administration  

United States government said it has gone 15 consecutive months without releasing illegal migrants into the country and has deported more than three million foreigners since President Donald Trump returned to office.

The claims were contained in a fact sheet published on the White House website on Wednesday, outlining what the administration described as measures to overhaul the US immigration system and strengthen border security.

“President Trump has delivered on his promise to fix the immigration system, prioritize American citizens, and protect U.S. citizenship,” the White House said.

According to the administration, Trump moved to address illegal immigration within his first week back in office by signing an executive order declaring a crisis at the southern border.

The order, it said, was aimed at reversing what the administration described as the Biden administration’s “record-shattering illegal immigration” into the United States.

“For 15 straight months, no illegal aliens have been released into the country,” the White House said.

It added that the administration had deported more than three million undocumented migrants, including thousands of people convicted of violent crimes.

The White House also highlighted what it called a “denaturalisation surge” targeting individuals who allegedly obtained US citizenship fraudulently or were ineligible for naturalisation.

It said the government had filed cases against 88 people who had obtained citizenship but were allegedly not eligible to receive it.

On access to public benefits, the administration said it had terminated taxpayer-funded assistance for more than 1.4 million undocumented migrants who it claimed were improperly receiving public support.

It added that the migrants had also been barred from more than a dozen taxpayer-funded healthcare programmes.

The White House said the administration had also tightened visa screening and other immigration programmes as part of efforts to prevent overstays and protect national security.

It said visa processing had been paused for 75 countries it classified as high-risk.

The administration further claimed it had taken steps to remove tens of thousands of undocumented migrants from voter rolls in several states.

According to the White House, the measures were intended to prevent non-citizens from participating in US elections, which it described as a right reserved for American citizens.

The administration also announced reforms to the US citizenship test, saying the changes were designed to more effectively assess applicants’ knowledge of American history, government and values, as well as their eligibility for citizenship.

The White House also pointed to two executive orders signed by Trump on August 6, 2026, concerning birthright citizenship.

The orders, according to the administration, seek to end what it described as “birth tourism” and clarify which categories of children are not entitled to birthright citizenship.

The White House said the measures followed the Supreme Court’s ruling in Trump v. Barbara, which it cited as a basis for clarifying the scope of birthright citizenship.
