Summary
Immigrant advocates fear children will face severe hardships under Trump’s second term, citing potential policies like reinstating family separations, mass deportations, and reduced protections for migrant youth.
Trump officials may target laws like the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act and Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, limiting asylum options for unaccompanied minors.
Advocates also worry about renewed efforts to end DACA, threatening deportation for over 500,000 recipients.
Experts warn these actions could cause lasting psychological harm to children and families, exacerbating trauma across generations.
“It’s about the law,” say the people who just elected a multiple-convicted felon to the highest office in the country.
The cruelty is the point.
Policy shift? Where did it shift from?
No care at all for the harm done to children BY policies which ignore things like grooming gangs though.
I could see it.
Has the sky fallen yet?
