The migrants on the frontline of Trump’s mass deportation plan

Hindustan Times  

By Kristina Cooke and Ted Hesson The migrants on the frontline of Trump’s mass deportation plan Blanca Figueroa and Severiano Martinez have known from the start of their eight-year marriage that she was at risk of deportation because she entered the United States illegally. About a third of the 1.4 million people expected to be prime targets for deportation - those like Figueroa with “final orders of removal” - live in the Florida and Texas enforcement areas, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement data obtained by Reuters. John Budensiek, sheriff in Martin County, Florida - an hour’s drive north from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club - said that many offenders who pass through his jails could be “low-hanging fruit.” Budensiek, a Republican, said the sheriff’s office has “had a really rough time” getting ICE officers to pick up immigration violators from their jails during President Joe Biden’s presidency. ‘BIGGEST FEAR’ Tom Homan, who will be border czar in Donald Trump’s incoming administration, has said immigrants with final deportation orders have already had a chance to argue their case in front of a judge. “What if I’m separated from my baby?” DEPORT TO OTHER COUNTRIES For Jorge Lopez-Giron, 47, a gay man from Honduras who has been living in the U.S. without legal status since 2000, the anticipated hardline shift under the Trump administration means he could be at an even greater risk of deportation because of a misdemeanor domestic violence conviction.
