Ever Chacon, a Venezuelan immigrant, faces anxiety as the Trump administration plans to end the temporary protected status (TPS) for Venezuelans, effective April 7. This status has provided him stability, allowing him to live and work in the U.S. without the fear of deportation since applying for asylum. Many immigrants, including Chacon, fear the impacts of these changes. Despite an announcement from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, legal perspectives suggest that deportations may not occur immediately, and lawsuits could challenge the administration's actions regarding immigrant rights.
"The country can't just deport people without any due process and without people asserting their rights," Ugarte said. "If people assert their rights, the country won't be able to just summarily deport people."
"I live in distress. I dream that I'm being deported," said Chacon. "It’s like I’m living in trauma over and over, where I receive a deportation letter."
