The most recent press release, "Colombian national sentenced to 27 years for operating prison-based fentanyl enterprise," was submitted on July 31.
The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement published 80 press releases the month before, marking a 20 percent decrease for the current month.
The Immigration and Naturalization Service (ICE) is the second largest investigative agency in the federal government.
Calls have increased since 2018 to abolish or significantly reform ICE as immigration rates in the US increase and many are turned away.
