There has been a decline in deportation flights and deportees since President Trump took office, according to Noticias Telemundo.

This is partly due to a drop in border crossings since January, which has left immigration authorities with fewer people eligible for “expedited removal.”
Trump announced mass expulsions, but pace of deportation flights slower than Biden’s
Countries that received more deportation flights haven't seen major changes and predict that 2025 will end with fewer deportees than previous years.

Good advice. Focus on what you can change. Go local because you can make a difference. And, join others who care about what you care about. Sitting on our hands is not an option. Giving up is not an option.

BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration to allow immigrants they are detaining at Guantánamo Bay to access legal services.

It is unprecedented and illegal for the president to ship people away from the U.S. and strip them of access to a lawyer.
