  "summary": "US Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested nearly 50,000 people in July, the highest single monthly total during the second Trump administration. The July arrest tally was 49,571, according to government data. This marks a 15 percent jump from 43,021 arrests the previous month and a 70 percent increase from 29,241 in February.\n\nThe spike in immigration arrests shows that the administration has continued to advance its mass deportations agenda. Texas and Florida accounted for nearly 20,000 of the July arrests, according to PBS NewsHour. The agency has been bolstered by billions of dollars from Congress and has hired 12,000 new deportation officers and agents.\n\nImmigration arrests in the month before Trump entered office were a little over 8,000, largely made up of immigrants transferred from city or state jails and prisons. The Associated Press and The Korea Times reported the 49,571 July arrests.",
