Trump’s three-day immigration blitz severely tightens border, sets stage for rapid deportations

CNN  

Washington CNN — The Trump administration has moved with lightning speed to roll out the president’s immigration agenda, effectively closing off the US southern border to asylum seekers, severely limiting who’s eligible to enter the United States and laying the groundwork to swiftly deport migrants already in the country. Providers who receive federal funding and work in immigration detention were told by the department Wednesday to stop providing legal orientation, help at immigration courts, and counsel for children, citing one of Trump’s executive orders. White House border czar Tom Homan told CNN’s Dana Bash Tuesday that targeted enforcement operations by Immigration and Customs Enforcement were already happening, but this time, he argued, agents have greater latitude. But Anna Gallagher, executive director of the Catholic Legal Immigration Network, said the policy change sends “a chilling message to our immigrant communities and create an environment of fear that will prevent people from seeking the support they need and accessing their rights.” Officials also expanded a procedure to speed up deportations to include undocumented immigrants anywhere in the US who can’t prove they’ve lived in the US continuously for two years or more.
