John,
When President Trump first took office in 2017, his administration enacted a sweeping set of actions on immigration, marking a dramatic shift in U.S. immigration policy that can still be felt today. Trump's second-term immigration agenda builds upon his first term's foundation but seeks to intensify those efforts.
These actions will focus on reinstating restrictive and enforcement-focused policies from Trump's first term - such as Title 42 expulsions, deportations, and limiting asylum access - and further measures, including expanding expedited removal processes and revoking protections for Dreamers, TPS holders, and other long-term U.S. residents.
We know there is a lot to take in, so the Forum's policy team put together resources that explain actions the new administration has already taken - including **halting refugee resettlement** [link removed], rolling back humanitarian parole and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for some groups, restarting **Remain in Mexico** [link removed], **declaring a national emergency at the border** [link removed], and more.
While we know many of these proposed policies align with President Trump's longstanding immigration agenda centered on securing borders and limiting pathways into the country, they will face logistical challenges and legal obstacles and are likely to lead to economic repercussions, social upheaval, and public outcry.
In the coming days and weeks, our team will continue to release explainers that go in-depth on the recent executive orders. These will be available on our website. In the meantime, don't forget to read **"Trump's First 100 Days: Potential Immigration Actions,"** [link removed] which outlines additional potential steps a second Trump administration could take during its first 100 days in office.
Thank you,
Emily Foster

P.S. We recently held a Facebook Live in which we discussed the start of the 119th Congress, the Trump administration, and what that all means for effective, bipartisan immigration reforms. **Watch the recording here >>** [link removed]
