00:00Welcome back. In Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States, migrant workers denounced new strategies by immigration authorities to detain them.
00:09Ania Rosa has the details.
00:15The immigration agency in the United States is using new methods to detain those who offer their labor.
00:20I think the strategy has gone a little too far, because now they stand at bus stops, and if they see you wearing work clothes that identify you as a day laborer, they arrest you.
00:34Lenin has lived in the United States capital for 10 years. He says that the situation has gone from bad to worse in recent years.
00:42Not only have jobs declined significantly, but now we also have to hide from the persecution of President Trump's immigration policy.
00:55At the beginning of his speech, he said he was focusing on criminals, but that is not the case.
01:00He is focusing on honest people who are looking for work and who may have families and children born here.
01:04And we feel threatened, honestly, in a quite complicated situation outside the normal.
01:12That is why they are increasingly seeking support from social organizations, such as United Workers in Washington, D.C., which has established support mechanisms.
01:26We have daily visits from colleagues who come with different cases.
01:29We are establishing a new program that we want to implement to help families with a family plan.
01:33So that they can understand the problem of deportation a little better, because it affects family unity.
01:48The United States, like other countries, is undergoing a process of restructuring labor relations.
01:56This is related to raids against workers, explains this expert.
02:00Muchos de los migrantes que provienen de los migrantes,
02:03Many of the migrants who come from Latin American and Caribbean countries have suffered deportation and imprisonment.
02:11They are subject to persecution that can even be seen on the streets of major United States.
02:16Cities with deployments of the National Guard.
02:22He adds that it is a sign of Donald Trump's repressive policy.
02:25According to D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute, the mass raids ordered by Donald Trump will not only continue to reduce the workforce,
02:35but will also increase the prices of certain products, to the detriment of United States residents themselves.
