Bay Area immigration lawyers assail Trump administration moves against migrants
Briefly

In the Bay Area, advocates are criticizing the Trump administration's tough stance on immigration, highlighting the significant impact on local communities. An immigration lawyer emphasizes that one in four families has varied immigration statuses, which contributes to the economy. The administration aims for an extensive deportation strategy, pushing self-deportation as a cost-saving measure. However, recent actions, including the miscategorization of temporary legal status holders by the Social Security Administration, exacerbate fears and uncertainty for immigrants, undermining their socio-economic stability.
Creating an environment with so many unknowns and fears makes it hard for families to effectively make decisions and know what will happen tomorrow or the next day, which has a major impact on all of us.
Compelling mass self-deportation is a safer path for aliens and law enforcement, and saves U.S. taxpayer dollars, in addition to conserving valuable Customs and Border Protection resources.
