US Immigration Crackdown Faces Public Backlash
The US government is detaining more people as part of a strict immigration policy.
This includes some people who are in the country legally, like students, and even some US citizens.
They are being held in places like private prisons, sometimes for days or weeks without proper legal processes.
Many people are upset about this and think the government is being too harsh.
The officials are now looking for more places to hold these detainees.
Some people think the policy has gone too far and are losing support for it.
US officials are considering private prisons and existing facilities to handle increased detainees.
Detainees include legal immigrants and US citizens.
Some detainees have been held for days or weeks without due process.
Public support for Donald Trump's immigration agenda is declining.
Concerns over the harshness and fairness of the immigration crackdown are growing.
