Summary

Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.

Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.

Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.

Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.

Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.

    Call them what they are. Concentration camps.

    And I’ve been saying the same thing. In fact, treaties will have to be negotiated with a lot of those countries even if they will be willing to take those citizens back. They can’t just land a bunch of C-130s in Shanghai and push all the undocumented Chinese immigrants out onto the tarmac.

    These people will be interred for a long time. In concentration camps.
