Under the Trump administration, a strong message directed at undocumented immigrants has emerged, urging them to leave voluntarily to avoid potential arrest and deportation. According to officials, this approach appears effective, as there has been a notable increase in voluntary returns. The DHS points to tools like the CBP Home app as facilitating self-deportation, which is promoted as a means for migrants to possibly re-enter the U.S. legally in the future. However, many deportations remain unfulfilled, indicating dissatisfaction within the Republican ranks regarding the current pace of removals.
Faced with the enormous challenge of deporting nearly 14 million undocumented immigrants, the new administration has focused on spreading the message that the best option for undocumented migrants is to leave voluntarily.
Authorities have confirmed that in recent weeks, the number of people choosing to return voluntarily has risen, signaling that the administration's rhetoric is having an impact.
McLaughlin defended the idea that self-deportation is the best path for migrants, stating that if they leave on their own, there's a possibility they could return legally.
The figures on migrant expulsions have left Republicans, especially the president, dissatisfied, despite significant investment promoting self-deportation and related messaging.
