Is it legal? The Department of Homeland Security is reported to have requested personal data of over 700,000 undocumented individuals in the U.S.

Is it legal? In recent weeks, concerns have arisen following reports that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has allegedly requested personal information from over 700,000 individuals in the U.S. who are currently in undocumented status. This action is reportedly aimed at updating records and enforcing stricter oversight of those who remain in the country without a defined immigration status.

This situation has raised legal doubts and fears within the immigrant community, as many wonder if providing such information is mandatory or if it could lead to deportation proceedings or other legal consequences.
