A new national survey shows that a majority of Americans oppose deporting migrants without criminal convictions to El Salvador without the opportunity to challenge their removal in court. The responses follow the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to expedite deportations, an initiative that has been quickly challenged in the courts.
According to a YouGov poll, 60% of Americans said they do not support "deporting immigrants without criminal convictions to El Salvador to be imprisoned without letting them challenge the deportation in court." Of those, 46% expressed strong opposition to the practice. In contrast, only 26% supported it, while 13% were unsure.
