President-elect Donald Trump is planning an aggressive push on immigration enforcement in his first days in office, including signing up to 100 executive orders on his first day. According to multiple reports, Trump's team is finalizing a record-setting number of executive actions, focusing on immigration. The planned actions include lifting restrictions placed on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) by the Biden administration, intensifying immigration enforcement, and initiating mass deportations of undocumented immigrants very quickly after inauguration. Incoming 'border czar' Tom Homan has stated, 'We are going to take the handcuffs off ICE,' allowing agents to fully enforce immigration laws without apology. Reports suggest that Chicago may be among the first cities targeted for ICE raids, although plans are under review after preliminary details leaked.
