Summary
A report indicates that roughly 150,000 Korean nationals in the U.S. are subject to deportations ordered by Donald Trump, among 14 million migrants overall.
Among those, 20,000 Korean adoptees remain without citizenship, intensifying community fears and concern over harsh immigration policies amid escalating anti-immigrant rhetoric.
Kim Dong-suk, head of the grassroots group, described Trump’s return as a disaster for Koreans, urging collective action among U.S. leaders and migrant groups.
The options are not “seeking citizenship” and “here illegally”. Most of those people are here on student visas or work visas of one kind of another.
That’s understandable I forgot about work/student non-immigrant visa’s, these still fall under a legal visa, I don’t understand why people with legal visas are being the target. They are in the country legally, there shouldn’t be any grounds for deportation for those. Being said after looking into it, it doesn’t seem like they need a reason to deport valid visa holders, which is screwed up honestly.
They have already announced plans to deport the Haitians in Springfield that are here legally too. I don’t know why anyone is shocked by this.
