US migrant policy: Does Donald Trump’s election mean possible family separations?

Former President Donald Trump is representing the Republican Party in the upcoming US presidential elections. He has promised to implement mass deportations if he gets reelected. But his statement has ignited fears of possible family separations.

Tom Homan led immigration enforcement during the first year-and-a-half of the Trump administration. Trump has said that Homan is going to join him in his administration if he successfully grabs a second term this November.

Recently addressing a question on if there is a method to carry out mass deportations and not separate families, Homan replied: “Of course there is. Families can be deported together,” according to a report by CBS.

Trump’s mass deportation plan for undocumented immigrants

Monica Camacho Perez and her family have lived in the US since coming from Mexico more than 20 years ago through an illegal route. Her family lives in Baltimore. She teaches English as a second language to immigrant adults, and is also a part of public high schools.

Camacho Perez is among the more than 500,000 undocumented immigrants brought to the US as children – those protected from deportation under the deferred action for childhood arrivals program. But her family are not protected by the program, reported CBS.

Camacho Perez said she has given a lot of thought to her next step if her parents get deported. Even though she has spent several years in Baltimore, she thinks she is going to go back to Mexico alongside her parents if such a situation arises.
