Immigrants across the United States are once again facing deportation threats as the Trump administration reopens decades-old immigration cases. The controversial policy shift, which began quietly eight weeks ago, is now expanding rapidly and raising alarm among immigration lawyers and advocacy groups.
Among those affected are long-time U.S. residents Jesús Adan Rico and Maria Torres, whose deportation proceedings had been administratively closed for years. Their cases, along with thousands of others, are being reactivated under a directive from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
