President-elect plans to declare a national emergency for undocumented immigrants with help of hardline cabinet<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n



Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0said on Monday that his\u00a0administration<\/a>\u00a0would declare a national emergency and use the\u00a0US military<\/a>\u00a0to carry out mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an early morning social media post, Trump responded<\/a> \u201cTRUE!!!\u201d to a post by Tom Fitton, the president of the conservative group Judicial Watch, who wrote on 8 November that the next administration \u201cwill use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since his decisive victory, Trump has said he intends to make good on his campaign promise to execute mass deportations<\/a>, beginning on the first day of his presidency. But many aspects of what he has described as the \u201clargest deportation program in American history\u201d remain unclear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump has previously suggested he would rely on wartime powers, military troops and sympathetic state and local leaders. Such a sprawling campaign \u2013 and the use of military personnel to carry it out \u2013 is almost certain to draw\u00a0legal challenges<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0pushback<\/a>\u00a0from Democratic leaders, some of whom have already said they would refuse to cooperate with Trump\u2019s deportation agenda.

Through personnel announcements, the president-elect has put together a team of loyalists and hardliners<\/a> to implement a second-term immigration crackdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Homan<\/a>, the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in his first administration, was named \u201cborder czar\u201d with a wide-ranging remit. In a short social media post announcing the position, Trump said Homan would be \u201cin charge of all Deportation of Illegal Aliens back to their Country of Origin\u201d.

Also returning for a second term is Stephen Miller<\/a>, a chief defender of the last administration\u2019s most controversial immigration policies, including the use of family separation as a means of deterrence. Miller was named White House deputy chief of staff for policy and a homeland security adviser, giving him far-reaching influence over immigration policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rounding out the team, he nominated<\/a> the South Dakota governor, Kristi Noem, a loyalist with a long record as an immigration hardliner, to be his next secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts and advocates say a deportation campaign on the scale Trump has outlined would raise legal and logistical challenges, not to mention the soaring costs<\/a> and infrastructure needed to detail and deport millions of people, many of whom have lived in the country for at least a decade, contribute to the workforce and share a household with US citizen family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump and Miller have described plans to federalize state national guard personnel and deploy them for immigration enforcement, including sending troops from friendly Republican-governed states into neighboring states with governors who decline to participate. Miller has also advocated<\/a> for building large-scale detention \u201ccamps\u201d and tents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his first post-election interview, Trump told NBC News that he had \u201cno choice\u201d but to implement a mass deportation plan, regardless of cost<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a question of a price tag,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s not \u2013 really, we have no choice. When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries, and now they\u2019re going to go back to those countries because they\u2019re not staying here. There is no price tag.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to an estimate by the American Immigration Council<\/a>, deporting 1 million people a year would cost more than $960bn over a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump at various points claimed he would deport at least 15 million \u2013 and even as many as 20 million \u2013 people who are in the US illegally, but the figure is unverified.

There were an estimated 11 million people living in the United States without authorization as of 2022, according to an analysis by Pew Research. Migration to the US border reached record levels in 2022 and 2023 before dropping dramatically in 2024, following stepped-up enforcement<\/a> by Mexico and an asylum clampdown<\/a> by the Biden administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is unclear who the Trump administration<\/a> would target for deportation. His campaign trail rhetoric often failed to distinguish between immigrants who have lawful status and those in the country illegally. And throughout the campaign, Trump claimed that immigrants crossing the US southern border in recent years were driving up crime, even though violent crime is down across the country and studies show immigrants commit crimes at lower rates than US citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the campaign, Trump\u2019s team repeatedly refused to rule out deporting Dreamers, young adults brought to the US as children, hundreds of thousands of whom are allowed to live and work in the US under an Obama-era program known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (Daca).

Questions remain about how the raids would be conducted and where people would be detained. Civil liberties advocates have already raised concerns about people with lawful status or even US citizens being swept up in a sprawling dragnet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, advocates have pushed back against Trump\u2019s assertion that he enters office with a mandate to carry out mass raids. They point to data<\/a> that has found most people do not support mass deportations, especially when respondents are informed about the potential impacts on the economy, the workforce and American families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe term strategy is clear, foment fear, panic and chaos into our communities, because as bullies, this is what they thrive on,\u201d Greisa Mart\u00ednez Rosas, the executive director of United We Dream Action, a network of groups that advocate for Dreamers said during a post-election debrief. She added: \u201cTrump may be re-elected, but he does not have a mandate to come into and rip apart our communities.\u201d
