The Trump administration announced a record-high increase in immigration judges on Thursday to speed up its deportation efforts.<\/p>\n

Seventy-seven permanent immigration judges and five temporary ones were sworn in Wednesday, the largest class in the history of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), the Department of Justice (DOJ) said. Immigration judges decide deportation cases and are crucial to President Donald Trump\u2019s goal of reducing a backlog.

\u201cToday, we are onboarding the largest immigration judge class in agency history,\u201d Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said. \u201cThis could only happen thanks to President Trump\u2019s decisive leadership and commitment to securing our borders. I also applaud EOIR\u2019s leadership team for helping facilitate these hiring efforts and recruiting highly qualified and talented personnel in record time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new class is part of 153 total permanent judges the EOIR appointed this fiscal year, the most the office has ever appointed in that time frame, according to the DOJ.<\/p>\n

For asylum-related immigration cases alone, the backlog under the Biden administration\u2019s lax border policies hit 2.5 million in fiscal year 2023 and a record high of 4 million by January 2025, according to the DOJ. The Trump administration began making progress in 2025 by putting military lawyers on immigration courts, leading to higher deportation rates, the Daily Caller News Foundation previously reported.\u00a0The DOJ has shrunk the caseload from about 4 million to under 3.53 million, according to Thursday\u2019s announcement.<\/p>\n

\u201cReducing the immigration court backlog remains one of the highest priorities for the [EOIR],\u201d the DOJ said.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is on track to deport more than 85,000 with judges\u2019 deportation orders by the end of fiscal year 2026, a DCNF investigation showed. The cases comprise a small portion of the more than 675,000 removals the Trump administration has taken credit for, which also include turnarounds at the U.S. border and self-deportations.<\/p>\n
