Consider This from NPR - How Trump’s immigration policy changes who gets arrested and detained
During his second Presidential campaign, Donald Trump vowed to carry out the largest deportation program the U.S. has ever seen.
And true to his word – Trump's administration is arresting, detaining and deporting immigrants without legal status.
But as part of the crackdown on illegal immigration, legal immigrants are getting caught up in the mix.
And then there's people like Amir Makled – a U.S. Citizen and lawyer. Makled was detained by Border agents at a Detroit airport as he returned from a family vacation in the Caribbean.
How is the Trump administration's immigration policy changing who is getting arrested and detained?
