Approximately 3.7 million people are under some form of community supervision in the US, nearly twice the number of people incarcerated in jails and prisons.
In 2021 alone, there were more than 178,000 admissions to prison from people on community supervision across the U.S., with over 93,000 admissions stemming from technical violations.
Since the creation of the Department of Homeland Security in 2003, the federal government has spent approximately $409 billion on immigration enforcement.
