WASHINGTON, DC — The Trump administration has taken 175 immigration-specific executive actions since returning to office in January, according to a Migration Policy Institute (MPI) count, far exceeding the 94 actions seen during the first 100 days of the Biden administration—and a nearly sixfold increase over the fewer than 30 actions during the same period during President Donald Trump’s first term, which at that time had been viewed as highly active in this policy area. And Trump on January 29 signed the first major stand-alone immigration bill to pass Congress in the past 19 years.
