Trump may order 200,000 Salvadorans to leave U.S.

/

The Trump administration faces a Monday deadline to decide the fate of nearly 200,000 Salvadorans who have been living in the United States under temporary legal immigration status for nearly two decades. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had not yet made a decision on whether to end the program, which would force those people back to their native El Salvador or become undocumented immigrants if they choose to remain without legal protections. Recent moves by President Trump, who favors lower levels of legal immigration, suggest the Salvadorans’ protections are in peril.
