As immigration discussions intensify, President Donald Trump makes immigration a central focus of his agenda. Known for implementing strict measures during his previous term, Trump now signals an even tougher approach in his current administration.

Key Policy Proposals and Their Impact

If carried out, these policies could deeply affect immigrant communities:

1. Ending Birthright Citizenship

Trump plans to end birthright citizenship via executive order—challenging the 14th Amendment. This could deny automatic citizenship to U.S.-born children of non-citizens, especially impacting mixed-status families.

2. Increased Deportations

Trump promises the “largest deportation operation in U.S. history,” aiming to ramp up ICE enforcement. This targets undocumented immigrants, including long-term residents with U.S. citizen children.

3. Travel and Visa Restrictions

Trump seeks to reinstate travel bans and tighten visa policies, especially for people from Muslim-majority and Latin American countries. These restrictions may affect family reunification, work, and student visa holders.

4. Limiting Asylum and Refugee Protections

Trump continues efforts to restrict asylum access, particularly at the southern border. His policies make it harder for those fleeing violence or persecution to find safety in the U.S.
