Trump plans to fine migrants $998 a day for failing to leave after deportation order
- The Trump administration plans to fine migrants $998 a day if they refuse to leave the U.S. After deportation orders, according to a report from Reuters.

- Customs and Border Protection will issue the penalties, and the administration is urging undocumented migrants to self-deport to avoid fines or jail time, as reported by the Department of Homeland Security.
- Approximately 26% of unauthorized migrants have family incomes below the poverty line, which may make the fines particularly challenging, according to the Migration Policy Institute.
