The Trump Administration's Immigration Crackdown - Bloomberg Law
May 12, 2026 Bloomberg Law (Audio)
Today we're examining an apparent aggressive new tack in the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.
The Justice Department has just moved to strip citizenship from 12 naturalized citizens in courts across the country.
That's compared to an average of about eleven cases per year between 1990 and 2017.
Immigration advocates have expressed concern that this could lead to the targeting of individuals for minor or honest mistakes, rather than just serious fraud.
For more, Bloomberg's June Grasso speaks to Leon Fresco, a partner at Holland and Knight and the former head of the office of immigration litigation in the Obama administration.
