Overview
On January 20, 2025, President Trump began rolling out a series of controversial immigration policies. Key changes include the abolishment of the CBP One app, which allowed asylum-seekers to schedule appointments for entry into the U.S. This decision has caused distress among many migrants, with thousands left uncertain about their futures. Additionally, Trump reinstated the 'Remain in Mexico' policy, forcing asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico during their legal proceedings. Trump's administration also declared a national emergency at the southern border and announced plans for mass deportations, sparking likely legal challenges from civil rights groups.
