Donald Trump made immigration one of his signature issues in the 2016 election. He promised to build a wall on our southern border and have Mexico pay for it. He called Mexicans criminals and rapists (and said that there were some good people too). He also proposed that Muslims be banned from entering the US.
After August 15, 2017, we decided to post most links to new immigration stories related to the Trump Administration in the Breaking News Section of our homepage and in our newsletters rather than on this page.
During his first week in office, President Trump issued 3 executive orders: (1) to build a wall; (2) to end federal 
funding of sanctuary cities; and (3) to halt the resettlement of refugees in the US and to suspend immigration from 7 countries in the Middle East.
Since Donald Trump became President in January 2017, immigration has been a hot topic in the press. Attorney Shusterman has been featured as an authority on the ABA Journal, Deadspin, Computerworld, the New York Times and dozens of other media outlets since the beginning of the year.
This page examines the immigration policies of the Trump Administration and what immigrants can do to protect themselves from anti-immigration policies promulgated by the White House.
