President Donald Trump announced Sunday evening that he has directed ICE officers to expand deportations from cities.
“We must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in Americans’ largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside,” he declared on TruthSocial.com. He added:
These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens.
The announcement comes amid a broad public rejection of Trump’s rescission decision to scale back enforcement against the use of illegal migrants in the hotel, farming, and food sector, mostly outside cities.
The announcement did not reverse the rollback or set conditions for employers who want to avoid the loss of illegal workers.
