Trump border czar Tom Homan wants ICE to dramatically up illegal migrant arrest quota after ‘big beautiful bill’ cash infusion

“And for those that say 3,000 a day is too much, I want to remind them, do the math we have to arrest 7,000 every single day for the remainder of this administration just to catch the ones Biden released into the nation,” Homan told reporters Monday outside the White House.

Trump signed the nearly 900-page bill into law on July 4, opening the door for ICE to hire 10,000 new officers and double its capacity to detain illegal immigrants.

The law will only “turbocharge” Trump’s deportation effort, Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLauglin told The Post last week.

White House advisor Stephen Miller recently pushed ICE to make 3,000 arrests per day, which has filled detention centers to the brim.

The Trump administration originally gave ICE a quota of 1,800 arrests a day in January and increased the expectations in May.
