THE MANAGEMENT OF US IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT
ANCA IULIA STOIAN, MIHNEA DRUMEAABSTRACT. Following Sullivan and Enriquez (2016), Chacón (2017), and Stageman (2017), this paper strives to prove that private organizations have been instrumental in constituting and supervising the immigration enforcement framework. Using data from Pew Research Center and Bureau of Justice Statistics, we performed an analysis and made estimations regarding federal criminal arrests by citizenship status, unauthorized US immigrants, number of federal convictions, and immigrant proportion of US population, and clarify that a more significant percentage of unauthorized immigrants are long-term residents.
