Overview
- President Trump announced a new immigration strategy that combines mass deportation with incentives for undocumented immigrants to self-deport and reenter legally.
- The plan establishes a 60-day window for undocumented immigrants to leave the U.S. voluntarily to remain eligible for legal reentry.
- Employers in critical sectors, such as farming and hospitality, can vouch for workers through recommendation letters to facilitate their legal return.
- The CBP Home app will be used to register undocumented immigrants and enforce the self-deportation process, with fines and penalties for non-compliance.
- Critics argue the policy undermines immigration law enforcement, while proponents highlight its potential to address labor shortages in essential industries.
