Summary
Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.
Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.
Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.
Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.
Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.
Doesn’t that mean she is at least a legal resident, if not a US citizen? Either way, if she’s married to a US citizen then she isn’t undocumented.
In the 1930s, over a third of all deportations were actually American citizens.
One of Trump’s campaign promises was to increase legal immigration, along with deporting undocumented immigrants. This isn’t the 1930s. Stop doomscrolling and get some fresh air.
“One of Trump’s campaign promises…”
Lol, lmao even.
He wouldn’t have promised it if his voters weren’t OK with it. Not saying he’ll keep his word, but it gives insight to the state of the Republican party. Some people on Lemmy seem to think he’s literally Hitler. He’s not, even if he turns out to be just as bad. He’ll find his own way to fuck shit up, so don’t expect an exact repeat of history.
