Trump’s New Penalty for Undocumented Immigrants: Billions of Dollars in Fines
The Trump administration has found a new way to pressure undocumented immigrants to leave the country. It is penalizing some of them with fines of nearly $1,000 a day for every day they stay in the country illegally.
So far, the administration has imposed $2 billion in fines on nearly 7,000 people who have failed to leave the country after either being ordered to do so or saying they would voluntarily go, according to Tricia McLaughlin, a homeland security spokeswoman.
President Trump has opened a major crackdown on immigration since he took office, using aggressive tactics to pursue arrests and deportations. But there have been roadblocks, including a lack of resources to carry out his big promises.
Officials have also encouraged migrants to leave the country voluntarily by offering them free flights and $1,000 stipends. This week, dozens of migrants leaving the country voluntarily were flown to Colombia and Honduras.
