Under Trump, deportations of once-protected immigrant kids have tripled

Under President Trump, deportations of unaccompanied immigrant minors have tripled compared to his last term. Elder Chavez, an 18-year-old granted Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, faces deportation after a traffic violation, despite having no criminal record and pursuing permanent residency. Immigration judges have issued over 10,000 removal orders monthly for such minors, a rate four times higher than in Trump’s last term.
