How does this action fit within the broader context of the Trump administration's immigration policies?

This action connects to broader patterns of restrictive immigration policies. By targeting immigrants with existing Social Security numbers—a requirement for legal employment—the administration seeks to deter future immigration and potentially remove existing immigrants. The change in SSA procedures, requiring in-person document retrieval, further complicates immigrants' ability to maintain legal status.
