President Donald Trump is overseeing a record percentage of rejected migrant asylum claims, data published by Austin Kocher of the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University reveals.
Kocher, who published the data via his Substack, found that in April of this year, federal immigration judges adjudicated a record 11,535 asylum cases for migrants and denied asylum in a record almost 80 percent of such cases.
“On a monthly basis, the percent of asylum cases denied had previously been as low as under 40 percent during the Obama administration and as high as nearly 75 percent during the first Trump administration,” Kocher writes:
