The Trump administration is working to massively expand the use of so-called expedited removal, which allows Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to quickly deport certain immigrants without their cases going to court.

Trump has unleashed ICE agents to use expedited removal beyond the border, and potentially on a much larger group of immigrants — those who have been living in the country for less than two years. He is the first president to exercise the law to the full extent allowed by Congress.

The president sought to expand its use beyond the southern border during his first term, but legal challenges prevented him from doing so until the final months of 2020, when an appeals court cleared the way for the expansion.
