WASHINGTON (NewsNation) — The Trump administration is cracking down on immigration across multiple agencies and has a stern warning for immigrants in the country illegally: leave the United States or pay massive fines.

The administration plans to fine immigrants facing deportation orders up to $998 a day if they fail to leave the country — and to seize their property if they refuse to pay.

Around 1.4 million immigrants ordered for removal will be targeted under the plan.
The Trump administration has urged anyone in the U.S. illegally to self-deport using the CBP Home app, formerly known as CBP One, or risk paying those fines.

The administration is planning to retroactively apply the fines for up to five years, which means some immigrants could owe more than $1 million, Reuters reported.

This plan is based on a 1996 law used by President Donald Trump during his first term in office,
before those fines and policies were rescinded under former President Joe Biden.
 
What a stupid idea. Like the destitute desperate people who come to seek work and a better life with only the clothes on their backs have money to pay a fine. MAGATs truly are stupid, deplorable garbage. Yes, that's YOU, @Earl. Now finger my post and have a hissy fit. That's a good grrrl.
 
The money that illegals are sending back to their own country will now remain in America.

The far left loons will, of course, oppose this.

That’s why they are called loons.
