A new law could create a list of immigrants illegally living in Mississippi. Advocates are alarmed

A new Mississippi law authorizes the state's Department of Public Safety to compile a list of undocumented immigrants, including personal details and deportation status. Advocates fear the database could facilitate immigration enforcement aligned with President Donald Trump's deportation plans. The law allows sharing data with state and local authorities but does not mandate sharing with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
