More than 800,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have been released into the United States without a Notice to Appear (NTA) in immigration court by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) since President Joe Biden took office.
CBS News first published this figure. It shows how many illegal aliens and border crossings were released by the agency without a court date. Instead, border crossers were given a Notice to Report (NTR) to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office or Parole Plus Alternatives to Detention (ATD).

Specifically, almost 600,000 border crossers and illegal aliens were given NTRs by Biden’s DHS — ensuring their release into the U.S. interior without any follow-up to appear before an immigration judge. The roughly 200,000 other border crossers and aliens were originally released under Parole Plus ATD without an NTR, but they were given court dates.
Months ago, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody revealed in court records that in the summer of 2021, alone, Biden’s DHS released more than 150,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities with only an NTR.
NTR releases by Biden’s DHS are only a fraction of the number of border crossers and illegal aliens released into the U.S. interior via the administration’s expansive Catch and Release network.
As Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) recently noted in congressional testimony, nearly two million border crossers and illegal aliens have been directly released into the U.S. interior since Biden took office — in addition to 1.2 million illegal aliens who have successfully crossed the border.

“Since Joe Biden canceled the Remain in Mexico policy and ordered ICE not to enforce court-ordered deportations … we’ve seen 1.7 million illegal aliens deliberately admitted into this country and another 1.2 million known got-aways have entered while the Border Patrol has been overwhelmed changing diapers and taking names,”McClintock stated:
That’s a total of 2.9 Million illegal aliens. This is Mississippi’s entire illegal alien population, as of this date.This was what precipitated the crisis. And as the Democrats’ witness testified, Our government has been able to quickly and effectively traffic illegal aliens.To every community within our country.

Americans are hugely opposed to Biden’s Catch and Release network. Recent Los Angeles TimesA /YouGov Poll found that 65% of Americans believe DHS should either deport or hold border crossing illegal aliens.
Fewer than 2-in-10 Americans said they support Biden’s Catch and Release network.
