More than a dozen immigration judges were fired on Friday, coinciding with President Donald Trump<\/a>‘s promise to trim the federal workforce.<\/p>\n

A union official told the Associated Press that 13 judges who were set to be sworn in, and five assistant chief immigration judges<\/a>, were fired on Friday without warning.<\/p>\n

The move comes after two other judges<\/a> were dismissed this week, the AP reported. No replacements have been announced.<\/p>\n

US IMMIGRATION BACKLOG REACHES NEW RECORD OF 3 MILLION PENDING CASES: REPORT<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Fox News Digital previously reported the U.S. immigration<\/a> court backlog surpassed three million pending cases.<\/p>\n

Immigration judges currently average 4,500 pending cases each, according to Syracuse University\u2019s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse.<\/p>\n

The AP reported five top court officials were replaced by the Trump administration, including Mary Cheng, the agency\u2019s acting director.\u00a0<\/p>\n

TRUMP BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP EXECUTIVE ORDER BLOCKED BY THIRD FEDERAL JUDGE<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In a memo released on Jan. 27, Sirce Owen, acting director of the Department of Justice<\/a>, noted the Biden administration “severely undermined” core values of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR).<\/p>\n

“An effort to restore those values and to re-establish EOIR as a model administrative adjudicatory body is well underway,” Owen wrote. “If all employees are willing to join that effort, then there will be no limit to what EOIR can achieve.”<\/p>\n

The Trump administration on Thursday instructed agencies to lay off most probationary workers without civil service protection, the AP reported.<\/p>\n

The International Federation of Professional & Technical Engineers, which represents federal employees, and the U.S. Justice Department\u2019s Executive Office for Immigration Review did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital’s Landon Mion and the Associated Press contributed to this report.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
