Mexico Launches App for Migrants to Alert Consulates Amid Trump Deportation Threats, Operational January 2025
Dec 27, 2024, 09:32 PM
The Mexican government is set to launch a mobile application featuring an 'alert button' designed to assist migrants in the United States who are at risk of imminent detention. This initiative, announced by Foreign Affairs Secretary Juan Ramón de la Fuente, aims to provide a means for migrants to notify their relatives, local consulates, and the Mexican government when they believe they may be detained by U.S. immigration authorities. The alert button will send real-time messages to designated contacts, allowing for quicker responses in such situations. This development comes in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump's threats of mass deportations, prompting Mexican officials to enhance protective measures for their citizens living abroad. The application is expected to be operational by January 2025, as part of a broader strategy to safeguard the rights and welfare of Mexican migrants in the U.S.
