US Immigrants Avoiding Travel Amidst Increased Immigration Scrutiny

A KFF and New York Times survey indicates that a significant number of immigrants in the U.S., including those with legal status and naturalized citizens, are avoiding travel to remain unnoticed by immigration authorities. This trend is particularly pronounced among undocumented immigrants. The survey suggests that approximately 30% of all U.S. immigrants deliberately avoid travel, with higher percentages reported for those on H-1B visas and naturalized citizens. This behavior is observed during a peak travel season, driven by a desire to avoid scrutiny.
