History

Historical Context

In 1996 Congress passed the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act, signed by President Bill Clinton and effective April 1 1997, which created expedited removal and expanded border-agent powers. The law’s tougher deportation standards helped lift annual removals from about 50,000 to over 200,000 by the early 2000s. Today the Justice Department’s renewed targeting of 17 migrants echoes that 1990s surge.
