How the Immigration Crackdown is Impacting Children
- In the first three months after returning to office, the Trump administration implemented more than 175 executive measures focused on immigration, resulting in arrests, raids, deportations, and the removal of three U.S. Citizen children.
- This crackdown followed President Trump's campaign promise to enforce immigration laws more strictly, as analyzed by the Migration Policy Institute.
- About 13 million undocumented people live in the U.S., including approximately 9 million children in households with at least one noncitizen adult, which affects both undocumented and citizen children in these families.
- Federal court cases Plyler v. Doe and Lau v. Nichols require schools to enroll all children regardless of immigration status and provide assistance to ensure equal educational opportunities.
- Research indicates that ICE presence causes stress among teachers and leads to decreased attendance and concentration among Hispanic and immigrant children, suggesting significant educational impacts.
