Immigrant advocates remain vigilant after President Trump delays raids.
MIAMI — Immigration activist LuzHilda Muñoz spit out her anger when she learned Saturday that President Donald Trump had just tweeted he was delaying planned immigration raids, a prospect that had sent fear through her community.
“It’s coming, maybe it will turn a little bit, stay on guard,” Murillo said. “We can’t ever let our guard down.” Then came Trump's tweet that he was postponing the plan for two weeks. But advocates said they are not standing down. “I feel that he’s holding our families hostage,” Morales said. “People are afraid to go out. I’m fully expecting tomorrow that the persons that normally go out to church are not going to go out because they are afraid."
Murillo said people in immigrant communities have been on higher alert since Trump’s inauguration, but the planned raids escalated the anxiety. On Friday, Democrats in the House of Representatives introduced a $4.5 billion emergency border supplemental funding bill that would give more money to Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to United We Dream.
