Trump keeps promising he would enact the largest domestic deportation operation in American history, exceeding 'Operation Wetback' in the 50s, which deported hundreds of thousands of Mexicans.

It's a disturbing and misleading proposal, says a migration scholar:

So Peter Dutton wants to have a housing election, and his housing policy is to cut immigration to 140,000 a year and cap foreign student visas.

That’s not a housing policy, it’s just a cut in immigration.

Japan's government is pushing a new law to strip permanent residents of their status - but it's based on incomplete data. Learn why some say the law will turn away foreign talent at a time when the country can ill afford it.

The newly agreed coalition government on Thursday plans the "strictest-ever" policy, including an opt-out from European Union rules. After six months in the making, the 26-page coalition agreement proposes to “deport people without a valid residence permit as much as possible, even forcibly”. Monte Francis reports.

Immigration has risen in Ireland.

The Irish government’s unwavering commitment to housing and feeding an unprecedented influx of migrants in the wake of a severe housing and cost of living crisis has brought the Irish electorate to boiling point. It has many similarities to the migrant crisis in the U.S.

ICEBREAKER #genchat Do you have instances of chain migration in your family line? @genchat

kwheaton,
@kwheaton@sfba.social avatar

@genchat @genchat yes, chain migration! It led to thousands of descendants in the US who claimed they were related but there wasn't much proof. All surnamed MOSER and later MOSIER They came from small villages in Bavaria on 2 ships a couple of years apart in the early 1700's. I recount part of the story here. It is the classic 3 brothers story but there were 6 brothers and a sister! And these pre-date immigration records. https://wheatonwood.com/2024/01/05/the-three-brothers-story-retold-johan-martin-moser/ #chainmigration #immigration #bavaria #familyhistory #genealogy

Just because you, all your friends, and everyone you are friendly with on line think one way does NOT mean that most people think like that

eg, #mastodon is, as far as i can tell, very pro #immigration

yet most people have, at best , mixed feelings

Immigrants are not stealing jobs, or mooching off of the government.

Immigrants tend to work in fields with the most unmet demand for workers, and are more likely to have jobs than US-born Americans
