Hours after Trump’s inauguration, his administration canceled appointments allowing migrants to enter the U.S. to request asylum, leaving many of them stranded on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Immigration officials are already taking action along the Texas-Mexico border. The American Civil Liberties Union has already filed at least one lawsuit.

Several migrants said they had recently arrived in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico after weeks of travel, only to find their CBP One appointments were cancelled.

State and local leaders across the country are bracing for a tidal wave of aggressive immigration policies and possible mass deportations that President Donald Trump has vowed to enact in the hours and days following his inauguration Monday.

WASHINGTON - Newly sworn-in U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that he would declare illegal immigration a national emergency, send troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, and reinstate his "remain in Mexico" policy as part of a sweeping immigration crackdown.

The president issued several actions related to the border or immigration, including ramping up deportations and suspending refugee resettlement.
