AUSTIN, Texas – A new deep-dive by the Washington Post provides a glimpse into Donald Trump’s authoritative immigration plans for 2025. Allies and spokespeople for Trump’s campaign reaffirm that his policies will draw parallels to his past deportation efforts, model Eisenhower-era immigration enforcement operations, and utilize the U.S. Military to enforce immigration measures. 

In summary, Trump’s immigration policies for 2025 include: 

• Implementing the largest domestic deportation operation in American history.

• Detaining migrants on military bases.

• Flying migrants out of the country on military planes.

• Building mass deportation camps to address detention space shortages.

• Withholding passports, Social Security numbers, and other government benefits from children of undocumented immigrants born in the United States.

• Deploying National Guard troops and state police to assist in immigration enforcement.

• Using executive orders to challenge the 14th Amendment's guarantee of birthright citizenship.

• Employing aggressive immigration enforcement tactics such as large-scale raids and street-level roundups.

• Mobilizing the Department of Defense under the Insurrection Act to enforce immigration policies.

Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa issued the following statement:
“First, Trump killed the border security funding bill and sent the MAGA Republicans on a two-week vacation without a border deal. And now as we get a glimpse into his immigration proposals for 2025 – we see nothing but an unhinged, dangerous and utterly racist approach to U.S. immigration. If elected as President, Trump’s MAGA policies would be an outright assault on Latino communities. Few other states would endure the full force of large-scale raids, street-roundups, and mass military deployments quite like Texas. The charge of Texas Democrats everywhere is clear: we must do everything in our power to keep Donald Trump out of the White House and keep these racist proposals out of our state.”
