Washington, DC – There were shackles in her wrist. Her hips. Her ankles.
The commitment memory has been haunted even after the 19 -year -old Ximena Aerias Christobal was released from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody.
About a month after the arrest, Georgia’s college student said he was still perceived as to how his life was transformed. One day in early May, she was pulled for a small traffic station: turning right in a red lamp. The next thing she knew was that she was facing a court date for deportation.
“That experience is something I can never forget. It has left an mark on me emotionally and mentally.
“More hurts more,” I know that millions of others have passed and are still suffering from the same kind of pain, “he said.
Rights lawyers say their story is symbolic of the “dragnet” deportation policy in the United States, which target all background immigrants regardless of whether it has a criminal record.
President Donald Trump has campaigned for a second term about the pledge to expel the “illegal” criminals in the country.
But as they are enhancing their “mass exile” campaign from the White House, critics say immigration agents are targeting migrants from various backgrounds – even if they are less dangerous.
“The quotas they are pushing are creating this situation on the ground where they are trying to follow someone they can catch,” said Vanessa Cardenas, executive director of the American voice of the immigration scholarly group.
He explained that young and undocumented immigrants, known as Dreamers, were among the weakest population.
“In the dragnet, we have long established, deeply rooted dreamers and are getting other people in the United States,” Cardenas explained.
A weak group
Aerias is an avid runner who studies financing and economics at Dalton State College 3.6 million People who are called Dreamers. Many were sent to the US as children, sometimes only family members, others.
For decades, the US government has fought the country on how to handle that young, undocumented arrival to the country.
In 2012, the then President Barack Obama announced the new executive policy, an action that was postponed for childhood arrival (DACA). It has provided temporary protection from deportation to younger immigrants living in the US since June 2007.
About 530,000 dreamers are protected from their DACA status. But the leader of the Thedream.Us immigration group, Gabi Pacheco, said the number represents a small amount of the total population of young immigrants.
Some arrived after the cut-off date of June 15, 2007, but others were unable to apply: processing has been paused for new apps in recent years. The legal challenges on the DACA are continuing their path through the Federal Court system.
“Sadly, multiple dreams in recent months. US scholars and alumni have been arrested, arrested and deported,” Pachco said.
He noted that 90 percent of the Dreamers had no protection under DACA or other programs that his institution was supporting his first year of higher education.
He said the last few months revealed the “truth of pain”: “The dreamers are attacked”.
Setting up quotas
But lawyers like Pacheco have warned that the first months of the Trump administration may be at the forefront of the coming things.
Last week, the Homeland Security Secretary Christie Noem and Deputy Chief of the White House Stephen Miller said the Trump administration increased its daily quota from 1,000 to 3,000 per day for immigration arrest.
The current draft of Trump’s budget inscription is known as a great beautiful bill-an estimated B 150 billion in government funds towards Goodwill and other migration-related activities. The bill compressed the House of Representatives and is likely to be taken up in the Senate in the coming weeks.
Both measures can mean a significant amount of migration in immigration, as lawyers have argued, portraying Trump’s US as a country overrun with foreign criminals.
Studies have repeatedly shown that undocumented immigrants commit less crimes, including violent crimes than US -based citizens.
Trump claims that available data is a large number of undocumented criminal criminals in the country.
The arrest and deportation rate remained much less when Trump’s predecessor, former President Joe Biden was in power, a report said Ingenuity Research project.
From January 26 to May 3, in the first four months of Trump’s second period, his administration has an average of 778 migration. That is only 2 percent higher than average in the final months of the Biden presidency, which is about 759.
The number of daily removal or deportation, led by Trump, is lower than the daily rate of biden.
‘More and more pushback’
Pacheco and Cardenas have warned that the pressure on the detention and deportation can lead to more desperate techniques.
The administration already has Reversed A policy of prohibiting migration in sensitive areas such as churches and schools. It has tried to use the 1798 war law to quickly deport the alleged gang members without proper process, and has withdrawn temporary protections that allowed some foreign nationals to stay in the country legally.
In an attempt to increase immigration detention, the Trump administration has pressured local authorities to coordinate the ICE. The administration, depicted on Section 287 (G) of the Immigration and Nationalism Act, has assigned some immigration powers to local law enforcement, in which people have been tested for the right to arrest and deportation.
In early May, the Tennessee Highway patrol was coordinated with the ICE, leading to about 100 immigration arrests. Another large -scale operation in Massachusetts in early June made Ice 1,500 arrests.

Cardenas showed those shows and support for Aerias Christobal as a testament to the rejection of Trump’s immigration policies.
“I hope we are going to see more and more pushbacks from Americans,” he said.
“After saying this, I believe that this administration has all the purpose of implementing their plans … and if Congress gives them more money, they will go behind our communities.”
