The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said it has issued more than $84 billion in civil fines to undocumented immigrants who remain in the country despite receiving final orders of removal. The department said more than 103,000 fines have been issued since the beginning of President Donald Trump's administration as part of its immigration enforcement measures.
According to DHS, undocumented immigrants who fail to leave the United States after receiving a final order of removal can face civil fines of $998 per day until they depart.
