Donald Trump announced plans to declare a national emergency to implement mass deportations of migrants, confirming intentions to utilize military resources. Reports indicate over 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S., leading to concerns from human rights advocates regarding the plan’s implications. Economists warn that deporting millions of workers could severely impact the already strained labor market. Historically, Trump’s use of national emergency powers allowed him to redirect funds for wall construction along the U.S.-Mexico border.
