President Donald Trump's first 100 days in the White House came with sweeping immigration legislation as efforts to carry out the "largest deportation operation in American history" took shape. The changes resulted in around over a 130,000 people without proper legal status to be removed from the U.S.
Since his first hours back in office, Trump signed a plethora of executive actions with the goal of curbing down unauthorized— and in many cases also legal— migration. Though numerous actions were met with legal challenges, such as his plans to end birthright citizenship and his operation to send migrants to an El Salvador prison, the plans have nevertheless upended the country's immigration system.
