Trump signals shift in immigration focus on dangerous offenders
President-elect Donald Trump hints at concentrating on deporting those most dangerous rather than all undocumented immigrants. The approach, similar to the Obama era narrowing, targets felons, serious misdemeanors, three or more misdemeanors, gang members and suspected terrorists. It could confront sanctuary cities and places like Fulton County and Lehigh County, with lawmakers proposing funding cuts for noncooperating jurisdictions.
