"-Stoking Fear: The Trump administration’s immigration crackdown has left many immigrants afraid of being detained and deported. Some have opted to leave the U.S. on their own.

- Broken Promises: The administration has promoted an app to help immigrants leave the U.S. and promised to pay for flights and give them $1,000. Some haven’t gotten what was promised.

- Unwanted: Many immigrants, particularly those from Venezuela, say they feel stuck. They’re unwanted in the U.S. and afraid to return to their homeland."
