Limited due process: Immigration judges are capped at 800, creating bottlenecks and limiting fair hearings. This shortage comes amidst an unprecedented surge in caseloads. The U.S. immigration court system is drowning under a backlog of over 3 million pending cases, with some estimates climbing as high as 3.9 million by the end of fiscal year 2024. This means immigrants often face average wait times stretching to several years, nearly four years in some areas, simply to have their case heard. To put this into perspective, judges completed a record 701,000 cases in fiscal year 2024, and have already surpassed that number in the first eleven months of fiscal year 2025.
