"[E]xperts say that while some migrants will likely heed the warning and voluntarily depart, there are significant hurdles to a massive deportation effort, especially a speedy one. Citing the due process clause of the US Constitution, Stephen Yale-Loehr of Cornell Law School said that “people have a right to a hearing before they can be deported”. “If they have applied for asylum, that means they’re in immigration court and they cannot be summarily deported without finding out whether their asylum claim is valid,” he said. Resource constraints are another. “The Trump administration will have to ask Congress for more money to hire more ICE agents, to create more detention camps, to pay for planes, etc., so you’re not going to see a lot of mass deportations on Day One,” said Yale-Loehr. Immigration courts are already facing massive backlogs. “We already have 3.7 million cases in immigration court and about 750 immigration judges,” he said."
