President-elect Donald Trump recently stated in an interview that families with mixed immigration statuses may face deportation under his administration. When asked about the possibility of deporting families with mixed immigration statuses, such as when a child is born in the US to parents who are in the country illegally, Trump emphasized the importance of keeping families together. He mentioned that the solution to avoid breaking up families would be to send them all back together.
These remarks echo the sentiments expressed by his choice for 'border czar,' former acting ICE Director Tom Homan. Homan, in an interview with '60 Minutes,' indicated that families could potentially be deported together under Trump's proposed policies. He also emphasized that any deportation efforts would be targeted, although specific details regarding the implementation and costs of such measures are yet to be fully disclosed.
