Trump Plans Extreme Crackdown on Immigration

November 11, 2023 · 7:21 am ET · Leave a Comment

“Former President Donald Trump is planning an extreme expansion of his first-term crackdown on immigration if he returns to power in 2025 — including preparing to round up undocumented people already in the United States on a vast scale and detain them in sprawling camps while they wait to be expelled,” the New York Times reports.

“The plans would sharply restrict both legal and illegal immigration in a multitude of ways.”

“The constellation of Mr. Trump’s 2025 plans amounts to an assault on immigration on a scale unseen in modern American history. Millions of undocumented immigrants would be barred from the country or uprooted from it years or even decades after settling here.”
