In a recent interview with Melissa Sanchez, a reporter for ProPublica, it was revealed that many immigrants in the United States, regardless of legal status, are currently living in fear. The looming threat of mass deportations promised by President Trump has caused Nicaraguan farmworkers in Wisconsin to begin mailing their possessions back to their home country in preparation for potential forced removal. Many immigrants are choosing to stay home and keep a low profile to avoid drawing attention to themselves.
The situation has created a climate of uncertainty and anxiety among immigrant communities as they wait to see if the promised deportations will come to fruition. The fear of being separated from their families and livelihoods is a constant concern for many immigrants who are unsure of what the future holds for them in the United States.
This segment of the interview will air on February 4, 2025, on Here & Now with Scott Tong. The audio recording will be available for listening after the broadcast.
