In January 2017, President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order titled "Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States." The order prioritizes a wider range and greater number of people for deportation. Soon after it was signed, a wave of immigration arrests swept across the nation and has left immigrant communities more vulnerable than ever. Newsweek collaborated with Immigrant Defense Project to create a series of #KnowYourRights videos in response to the mass deportation.
