Immigration advocates brace for Trump: 'Buckle up'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : In 2023, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce called on Congress to move forward a series of bipartisan bills directed toward border security and immigration reform.
42% : The prevailing frustration and anger in the immigration advocacy world is not only directed at Trump, but at those voters.
41% : Immigration advocates are bracing for Trump 2.0, whose pledge of mass deportation is sending waves of panic and anger throughout the movement.
35% : But immigrant advocates have been laying the groundwork for advocacy on economic terms, highlighting immigrants, documented and undocumented, as a force in both the labor and consumer markets, and they see an opening to engage a broader electorate concerned with civil rights under Trump.
33% : And frankly, I would say that there are a lot of people that supported Trump, that voted for Trump, that voted because of the economic issues or for other issues, or because, you know, strong man attitude, like whether it was machismo that led that, whatever, for whatever reason, we need to bring them back.
29% : But some remain skeptical that Trump will be able to -- or truly want to -- build the infrastructure needed to carry out millions of deportations.
