With President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration just over a week away, his immigration strategy is taking shape, sparking intense debate and raising concerns among South Florida’s diverse communities.
On This Week in South Florida, host Glenna Milberg welcomed U.S. immigration attorneys Saman Movassaghi Gonzalez and Angel Leal to analyze the president-elect’s plans and their potential impact.
Trump has vowed to implement what he describes as “mass deportations” as part of his broader immigration agenda.
Key elements of this strategy, revealed during recent meetings with his team, include targeting individuals with standing deportation orders — even those actively appealing their cases — and conducting workplace raids aimed at undocumented employees.
These raids, according to reports, are designed not only to enforce immigration laws but also to send a strong public message.
As Trump’s inauguration looms, South Florida’s immigrant communities are bracing for the potential consequences of his policies. The conversation on TWISF underscored the urgent need for legal resources and support for those who may be affected.
