Summary

Forum is a new series from USA TODAY's Opinion team, dedicated to showcasing views from across the political spectrum on issues that Americans are starkly divided on. Today you’ll hear from a few folks on the topic of immigration. President Donald Trump campaigned for the White House promising to deport millions of undocumented immigrants in the largest deportation operation in U.S. history. We asked: do you agree with Trump’s immigration policies and actions? If you'd like to weigh in on a different topic, you can find more questions at usatoday.com/forum. And if your submission is selected for print, we might invite you to add your voice to a future special bonus episode like this one. Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to [email protected].
