Trump's migration policy: protests and new instructions in California!

Los Angeles, Kalifornien, USA - In the past few days, a real storm of protest has developed in California, especially in Los Angeles. The demonstrations are directed against the strict migration policy of US President Donald Trump and the arrests of migrants without a valid residence status. According to [Verlagshaus-jaumann.de] (https://www.verlagshaus-jaumann.de/inhalt.hilfe-fuer- und-hotels-bericht-Trump-Schwaecht-Schharfen-migrationkursab.9356fc6-4a8b-ba-e75930003BBL) Money laundering and drug smuggling, while the security forces of the ICE immigration authority carry out mass arrest. Over 40 people were arrested during raids, which further fueled public unrest.

The protests are not only in large numbers, but also in their intensity, whereby there have been serious clashes between the demonstrating and armed security forces. These flowers in the face of the demonstrators were answered by security forces with tear gas and glare grenades, which only escalated the situation. The [SRF] (https://www.srf.ch/news/international/usa/nachrazzien-in-los-angeles-proteste-in-kalifornia-response-to-the-most questions) reports that it was difficult for the local police to intervene on site, which led to an even more explosive atmosphere.

Trump's migration course in upheaval

President Donald Trump has apparently reacted to the continuing protests and cushioned his strict deportation course somewhat. According to reports from the nw.de, the Trump government has initiated a change in its migration policy. Officials from the ICE immigration authority have been instructed to largely suspend arrests in agricultural companies, hotels and restaurants. Trump had already said that migration policy had a negative impact on the workforce in these sectors, even if they are often not US citizens.

The new instruction from Tatum King, a senior official of the ICE, aims to exclude “non -criminal accompanying persons”. This could protect people who only work for family or friends, for example, and smooth the waves of excitement. Nevertheless, the background of the investigation into human trafficking and drug smuggling remains upright, which is a critical balance between security and humanitarian matters.

intervention of the National Guard

In the middle of all of this, Trump also ordered the mobilization of 2000 soldiers of the National Guard to end "lawlessness" in California. This decision met with great resistance. California's governor Gavin Newsom vehemently criticized the use and described the measure as illegal, since the governor normally decides on the use of the national guard, not the federal government. Social conflicts and meetings were additionally burdened by this advance, and Newsom called for the use of the operation.

The developments in Los Angeles also skill light on the tense conditions around Trump's migration policy. While the protesting weirs and a reform of the current course are demanding, it remains to be seen whether the government's new instructions can actually bring about a noticeable turn in the crisis.
