77% Informative
Venezuelans and Immigrants Aid says in-person attendance at weekly meetings has dwindled.
The president's immigration crackdown has made immigrants more afraid, the group's co-founder says.
Many are worried that their future in the U.S. is at risk now, Hector Arguinzones says.
Venezuelan migrants accounted for around a quarter of all encounters during the pandemic.
The Trump administration is also looking to dismiss pending immigration cases to reprocess them through expedited removal.
Members of the community Arguinzones serves are strapped for options amid the crackdown, with some considering self-deportation.
