What happened
President Donald Trump has pledged to launch a large-scale mass deportation operation in the United States. The administration has stated that this campaign aims to deport one million people annually and is accelerating related hearings. The efforts involve increased arrests and raids, targeting various groups including day laborers and immigrants with different statuses.

Why it matters
The increased enforcement actions are causing significant shifts in how businesses operate in heavily immigrant communities. For example, in Brentwood, New York, the presence of ICE has led to business declines in areas like strip malls due to frequent immigration raids. Furthermore, the campaign heightens the risk of scrutiny for immigrants, including those with long-term residency status.
