Donald Trump News: A shocking news has come out for the green card holders living in America. The US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has strictly warned the green card holders that if there is any old wrongdoing or criminal history in your record, then your green card can be canceled. Not only this, you can also be detained while entering America. CBP has clearly said that having a green card is not a right, but a privilege.If you break the law, then there will be no mercy!CBP says that the US immigration laws give the government full right to take away the status of those green card holders who have broken the law in any way. Whether it is a big crime, like drug smuggling, or a minor mistake, now everyone will be strictly investigated. If you reach any entry point of America and something is found wrong in your record, then you may have to face mandatory detention. That is, you will be taken into custody without delay.Fear in the immigrant communityThis warning has created panic among green card holders. Many people, who have settled in America for years, are now afraid. Critics say that this language of CBP is less of a warning and more like intimidation. People are raising questions whether the green card will now be considered permanent or has it just become a status with conditions? This attitude of CBP shows that America is no longer going to be as lenient as before regarding the green card.What does the law say?The US Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) clearly states that green card holders can be deported for certain crimes—like drug trafficking, fraud, or domestic violence. But now the agencies are showing strictness even on minor crimes. That is, if there is even a small mistake recorded in your old record, then it can become a problem for you.Questions in the land of opportunitiesAmerica has always been called the land of opportunities, there are many people who have made minor mistakes, but now they are facing the threat of detention or deportation.Is the Green Card safe now?This strictness of CBP has further increased the feeling of insecurity among the Green Card holders. People are wondering whether their Green Card is really safe now? The language of American agencies has now become more harsh and warning than before. This question is now in everyone's mind whether Green Card is now a permanent identity or just an exemption given on certain conditions? This news has not only shaken the immigrant community, but has also forced people to think about how much America's attitude towards immigrants has changed now.
