The Department of Homeland Security is opening the door to the parole status of migrants to be reviewed, leading to their eventual removal from the country.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security memo provides guidance for the use of a fast-track deportation process that the Trump administration reinstated earlier this week, suggesting officers focus on migrants who failed to request asylum within a one-year deadline after arriving in the U.

The numbers could indicate that the Trump administration’s show of force has so far outpaced the government’s ability to quickly deport more migrants.

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has directed prosecutors to investigate officials who resist immigration enforcement efforts, intensifying a sweeping crackdown that Trump launched the day he took office.
