Washington immigration lawyers and civil rights groups are preparing to take over the campaign of the elected president of Donald Trump in order to take action against immigration, from the revival of the controversial policy of his first term to create mass finishes.
Trump has undertaken to end immediately after the restoration of the office, programs that enabled immigrants to legally work in the country and live in the country. In these humanitarian probation programs from 2021, There were more than 1 million Immigrants with momentary protection.
What will probably follow immediately is the re -expression of its previous immigration policy, e.g. Wait for your cases.
Immigration groups prepare for these and those who follow before the term of office.
Sirine Shebaya, Managing Director of the National Immigration Project, was a sobering reality.
“We realize that many are afraid of what will bring the next four years,” she said in an explanation. “Although we cannot prevent all the damage from it, we say to everyone who harms them: We are here to do everything in our power to support and protect each other.”
The American Civil Liberties Union, who questioned some of Trump’s toughest immigration policy in its first term, said on social media that it was on legal challenges that begin on Trump’s first day of the office.
Greisa Martínez Rosas, managing director of the largest youth organization immigrants, United We Dream, said in a statement that Trump, who promised to plan mass shifts, were “clear eyes over the upcoming struggle”.
“We will use and expand our power and build up the largest immigration movement that this country has ever seen to defend against white nationalism and create a vision for the future without fear and thrive,” said Martínez Rosas .
Deportations
Some immediate deportations could include those who are already in the immigration and customs authority. That was 37,395 from September.
It could also include the expansion of accelerated distances, which means that they can be deported without a hearing in front of a judge without hearing if a person can be deported without eternal legal status for two years without a trial or any kind of approval.
This type of distance is 100 miles away from a border. During the first Trump government, however, this zone was expanded to the rest of the country. A second Trump government could do that again.
The migration Policy Institute, a thought factory for immigration, Has estimated That “the expansion of the accelerated distance into the US interior could apply to up to 288,000 people.”
Tom Homan, who worked as a deputy director for immigration and customs authority from 2017 to 2018, recently said that the mass deportation would be targeted.
“It will not be a mass framework for neighborhoods,” he said. “You will be targeted arrests. We will know who we are arrested where we find them most likely that are based on numerous investigations. “
financing
It is also the cost of mass shifts.
Trump’s core campaign promise to issue mass shifts would be a costly obligation that requires the consent of the congress – something that could be easier if the incoming president is given control of both chambers.
The American immigration council in a conservative estimate, found That it would cost 968 billion US dollars to remove around 13 million immigrants from the country in the next ten years without permission.
The government would cost the arrests of 89.3 billion US dollars, $ 167.8 billion to hold out massive amounts to people, 34 billion US dollars for legal processing and $ 24 billion for distances after analysis .
This financing would have to be acquired through the congress.
From Thursday morning it was unclear whether Trump would deal with a shared congress or a United GOP control. The Republicans have turned the Senate up, and although there are still too many house races left to project control over the chamber, the GOP stepped towards a gaunt majority.
Economic effects
Economically Experts have warned the consequences of the removal of millions of employees.
Jeremy Robbins, the executive director of the American Immigration Council, tried to break down the economic effects of mass shifts.
“If a president opted for the mass deportation, this would be exceptional costs for the government and at the same time devastating the economy,” said Robbins in a statement on Wednesday.
“It is essential that the political decision -makers and the American public understand what this would include: tens of billions of taxpayers dollars, already affected industries, destroyed millions of people who are caught up in custody, and thousands of families who have been torn apart Communities across the country. “
In 2022, households under the direction of immigrants without papers paid 75.6 billion US dollars in total taxes, according to the American Immigration Council. It is estimated that about 4.8% of the US workforce consist of non -authorized immigrants. According to the Pew Research Center.
