Trump administration clears the way for far more deportations

LA Times  

President Trump ordered a vast overhaul of immigration law enforcement during his first week in office. The Trump administration swept aside nearly all restrictions Tuesday on targeting for removal the 11 million people in the U.S. illegally, a vast expansion of the federal government’s deportation priorities as the president pursues his promised crackdown on illegal immigration. Kelly’s guidelines call for hiring 10,000 more immigration enforcement officers and 5,000 Border Patrol agents and for the immediate planning and building of a wall along the southern border, all of which Trump ordered earlier. Kelly’s memos did not specify how the Trump administration plans to deal with 750,000 so-called Dreamers, migrants brought to the country illegally as children and granted work permits under an initiative by President Obama. Kelly’s memos also restarted a program called Secure Communities that notifies immigration agents when people in the country illegally are booked into local jails.
