President Donald Trump wasted little time renewing his attack on immigrants, both those already in the U.S. and those attempting to come here.
On the first day of his second administration, Trump signed executive orders to bar asylum for people newly arriving at the southern border; end birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants, even though it is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment; and declare that migrant crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border constitute a national emergency, which would allow Trump to use federal funds to build a border wall without consulting Congress.
