The Trump administration reportedly added over 6,000 living immigrants to the Social Security Administration's 'death master file,' a list used to track deceased individuals.
This move effectively canceled their Social Security numbers, cutting off access to work authorization and federal benefits. The action appears to be part of a broader strategy to encourage self-deportation by making life in the U.S. more difficult for immigrants. Critics argue this tactic is both unethical and potentially illegal, as it targets individuals who are legally present in the country.
The affected immigrants now face significant challenges in restoring their legal status and access to essential services.
