More than 660,000 noncitizens with criminal histories are on ICE’s national docket, a “staggering” number that the Massachusetts GOP pointed out is larger than the “entire population of Boston.”
As of July, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement recorded 662,566 illegal immigrants who have a criminal background on its national docket. Of those, 435,719 are convicted criminals and 226,847 have pending criminal charges.
That’s according to fresh national data that Deputy Director Patrick L. Lechleitner released last week, providing the numbers to U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales, whose southwestern Texas district borders Mexico.
Boston’s population in 2024 is 654,423, according to World Population Review.
