"President Trump is back in power, and the priorities of his long-promised immigration crackdown are clear.

His executive orders signed this week outline a sweeping agenda, from declaring an invasion at the border to ending birthright citizenship.

But significant questions remain about what’s next.

Here are some major issues to watch:"

Professor Lucas Guttentag with Stanford and Yale law students created and keep updating this wonderful resource:
"The Immigration Policy Tracking Project catalogues every known Trump administration immigration policy, attaches the source documents, and highlights all new 2.0 policies. Entries are organized by date and subject, searchable by key terms, updated to report on current status, and filtered by 1.0 and 2.0 terms."

Part 2, #GaryStevenson explains why Donald #Trump’s economic plans—focused on #tariffs and #immigration restrictions—will fail. While these policies sound “#AmericaFirst,” #Stevenson explains why they are unlikely to be fully implemented, and if they are, they could backfire on working #Americans.

The Immigration Illusion

#Trump vows to cut immigration, but key industries like #agriculture, #FoodService, and low-wage #jobs depend on #migrant workers. The #UK’s #Conservatives made similar promises but ended up increasing immigration to keep the economy running. Without a workforce to replace #migrants, the U.S. will face #LaborShortages, higher costs, and economic disruptions.

The #Tariff Trap

History shows #tariffs can work—but only when applied strategically. Countries like #Japan and #SouthKorea successfully protected industries, but broad, untargeted tariffs raise #consumer prices. If the U.S. lacks the domestic industries to replace imports, tariffs will cause inflation and reduce purchasing power, hitting working-class Americans the hardest.

The Real Threat: #TaxCutsfortheRich

One policy Trump will implement is massive tax cuts for the wealthy, just like in his first term. #Billionaires like Elon #Musk and Trump’s financial backers will benefit, while spending cuts will offset lost revenue, leading to job losses and reduced services. Even if taxes on workers don’t rise, their cost of living will.

Why It All Fails

#Trump ignores the core issue—rising inequality. His tax cuts, flawed tariffs, and unrealistic immigration plans will worsen economic conditions for most Americans while benefiting the ultra-rich. No matter who wins, the #economy fails for the majority.

"Despite the recent uptick in #Republican support for #massdeportation, a clear majority of people in the U.S. would rather give #undocumentedimmigrants a path to legal status than have them #deported. This has remained true for eight years."
