deportation policies
Forced removal rules
Deportation policies are government rules and procedures for removing noncitizens from a country.
These policies determine who is subject to deportation—typically those who entered illegally, overstayed visas, or committed crimes—and establish the legal process for removal.
The term often appears in political debate: The administration's deportation policies have drawn criticism from immigrant advocates.
Implementation varies widely, from targeted enforcement to mass deportation programs.
