dc.description.abstract	Immigration was a touchstone issue in the 2016 federal election that brought President Donald Trump to office. Since then, the policy area has only become more contentious in the U.S., with unprecedented actions taken by the Trump administration to limit the number of both regular and irregular migrants. These actions have won him praise from immigration hardliners and his base but also condemnation from those concerned for the rights and well-being of immigrants and asylum seekers. The next four years will look very different for the field of immigration depending on a Trump or Joe Biden presidency. This brief summarizes changes that have occurred under the Trump administration so far and examines the repercussions of the November election on four aspects of immigration policy.
