How will Trump’s presidency affect immigrants?

As the days inch closer to President-elect Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day, many immigrants throughout the country are becoming increasingly uneasy, and are left with much uncertainty about the status of their life and future in the United States with Trump in office. Throughout his campaign, Trump used illegal immigrants and their status in the U.S. in an unflattering manner and used the subject of immigration law as a rallying cry to gain support from voters less sympathetic to the plight of immigrants.

Now that he is elected, it is uncertain what he will do when in power. Will he adhere to the strict policies he pledged during his campaign, or will he rethink things and pull back on some of the rhetoric?

Regardless of your status here in America, it is important for us to acknowledge that many immigrants play a vital role in both the country’s workforce and have a strong social impact on local, state and national scenes.
