Q: Can a dreamer travel within the US at the moment after Trump has indicated he will protect them?
This dreamer has a removal of deportation but is currently not in trial. Case has to be reopened as this was 19 years ago. Is it still safe to currrently travel? Dreamer has traveled within Us states before. Thanks!
A: Hypothetically it is safe to travel within the US...HOWEVER we are seeing reports of passengers on domestic flights being asked for identification by immigration agents. If this dreamer has DACA, he/she is in better shape. However, anyone without a status must be extraordinarily cautious at this time when doing any travel, especially in airports - even for domestic flights. If he/she has other questions, help them find an immigration attorney to talk to.
