The administration continues its immigration crackdown despite growing public backlash. Tom Homan, Trump’s so-called “border czar,” has “vowed to flood the zone” of sanctuary cities with ICE agents. According to CBS News, Todd Lyons, ICE’s acting director, said there would be a crackdown on employers of unauthorized workers.

This comes as national public opinion regarding the immigration crackdown continues to worsen amid reports of masked agents raiding neighborhoods in tactical gear, increasing pressure on Republicans in states like California. These Republicans have criticized the economic repercussions rather than Trump himself in an effort to appease constituents. Politico cites increasingly vocal employers as a motivating factor, as well as recent polling showing a marked decrease in support for the immigration crackdown even among Republicans.

An analysis conducted by the University of Pennsylvania suggests that Trump’s immigration crackdown will have disastrous effects on the economy, with CNN’s headline stating it will “shrink paychecks.” According to CNN Business, the Penn Wharton analysis found that “higher-skilled workers are generally harmed by deportation more than authorized lower-skilled workers are helped.” This is in addition to the recently passed “megabill,” projected to add $3.4 trillion to the national debt.

Given this context, experts recommend seeking specialized legal support. Having an immigration lawyer in Miami can be key for workers and employers to understand their rights and legal risks amid these actions.

Be very careful!

Beware of notaries, immigration consultants or anyone who is not qualified and prepared in these matters. Always seek the advice and services of an immigration attorney for your immigration processes and procedures.
