Mass Deportation Coalition proposes solutions for Trump admin to implement

A group of immigration law and policy experts, including former senior immigration enforcement officials, has proposed a solution to help the Trump administration implement a mass deportation plan.After more than 14 million illegal border crossers were reported during the Biden administration, and millions more are believed be living illegally in the country, finding them is a monumental task, they argue.
One of President Donald Trump’s campaign promises was to “conduct the largest mass deportation operation in American History.” Of the more than 2.5 million illegal foreign nationals who were removed, the overwhelming majority, 1.9 million, self-deported, The Center Square reported.
Under former Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, border security enforcement was marked by numerous scandals, including questionable hundred million dollar contracts, border wall contracts granted to companies tied to fraud, U.S. citizens who were shot and killed or injured during protests and violence erupting on city streets.
Under new DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, border security advocates are hoping positive changes will come to the agency tasked with securing U.S. borders, implementing national security policies and mass deportation.
In a new 104-page report, the Mass Deportation Coalition has proposed a roadmap to help with deportation.
It says deportation is imperative to understanding “what exactly it means to be an American. Misunderstanding America, confusing it for an economic zone or a multicultural population, has led to decades of destructive immigration policies. These have hurt Americans and eroded our understanding of ourselves. America deserves better.”
Coalition members say they “share a devotion to the nation we call home. This requires us to stand up, speak boldly, and fix the existential crisis that is American immigration. Thanks to President Trump, the urgent need to secure the order has been accomplished. Now is the time for step two: removing the many millions of deportable people in America.
“After decades of weak leadership, we finally have a window of opportunity … to make America great again. That window is small. If we do not act – and soon – we will lose our nation. America will cease to mean anything at all.”
The coalition also takes issue with America being defined as a “melting pot … by perpetual cultural transformation.” It points to migrant warfare as a means to destroy the country. While immigration “has played an important role in American history, immigration policy must serve the nation, not replace it,” the coalition argues.
“The United States has reached a moment when clarity is necessary. Either America remains a nation capable of governing its borders and preserving the continuity of its civic life, or it becomes something else entirely: a place defined only by geography and economic opportunity. The choice before us is therefore not simply about immigration policy. It is about whether America will continue to exist as a nation with a distinct character and a shared destiny.”
Many of the recommendations cite concerns raised by the final report of the 9/11 Commission, pointing to the need to identify illegal foreign nationals with terrorism connections.
Several recommendations relate to policies the Trump administration is already implementing. They include enhanced worksite enforcement, reforming the asylum and visa processes, expanding detention capacity, requiring “alien registration requirements through criminal prosecutions,” enforcing civil penalties for failing to depart, expanding civil asset forfeiture for immigration violations and enabling federal agencies to share information about foreign nationals, including the Social Security Administration and IRS.
Other recommendations relate to prosecution and law enforcement collaboration, including sharing crime data, assigning special prosecutors for immigration related crimes, reassigning immigration officers within DHS, placing interior immigration enforcement operations within the Homeland Security Task Force, among other recommendations.
