Still more work to do to beat Blowjob Bill's record!

Barack Hussein Obama was dubbed "the deporter in chief" by immigrant rights advocates for the high number of deportations that occurred during his presidential term. During his eight years in office (2009–2017), the Obama administration removed more than 3 million noncitizens.
Key details of Obama's deportation record:
  • Criticism from advocates: Immigration advocacy groups gave Obama the nickname, particularly during his 2012 re-election campaign, to criticize the high number of deportations.
  • Record-setting numbers: The number of deportations during the Obama administration exceeded those of previous administrations, except Bill Clinton's.
  • Enforcement policies: The administration's policies, such as the Secure Communities program, drew heavy criticism despite the administration's claims of focusing on criminals over families.
  • Historical context: Critics often point out that the immigration enforcement policies of the Obama administration largely built upon policies initiated by his predecessor, George W. Bush.
While other presidents have also overseen significant deportations, Obama's record received this specific label during his time in office.
