Immigration is a pivotal issue in the U.S. presidential campaign as Election Day approaches, with Republican candidate Donald Trump advocating for stricter immigration policies, including the largest domestic deportation operation in history. His proposed changes, such as ending birthright citizenship, have raised concerns among immigrant communities from South Asia and beyond. Simultaneously, Mexico has intensified its crackdown on migrants, resulting in a significant decrease in the number of individuals attempting to enter the U.S. This crackdown is seen as a strategic move to alleviate pressure on the Biden administration amid Trump's immigration rhetoric, which polls show resonates with many voters. Vice President Kamala Harris emphasizes the need for immigration reform, arguing that the current system is broken. The contrasting views reflect a deeply polarized political landscape as both candidates seek to address the sensitive topic of immigration in their campaigns.
