‘What’s next for migrants?’: The fight for immigration reform after Trump’s midterm defeat

Following the Democrats' midterm victory, immigrant advocates see a chance for immigration reform, particularly regarding the legalization of undocumented immigrants. Trump's administration, previously marked by anti-immigrant rhetoric, may now be more open to negotiation. Activists are urging Democrats not to repeat past failures in addressing immigration issues. The upcoming 40th anniversary of Reagan's amnesty for undocumented immigrants highlights the contrast between past and current policies. Advocates are pushing for new legislation, such as the Dignity Act, which would provide temporary protections for undocumented immigrants but lacks a pathway to permanent residency.
