Tijuana declares state of emergency as it braces for mass deportations under Trump
01/21/2025 // Ava Grace
Tijuana declared a state of emergency to prepare for potential mass deportations under a second Trump administration, fearing a significant influx of deportees.
The city is allocating funds for housing, security and legal services to support thousands of deportees and ensure their dignified treatment.
Plans include opening a shelter for up to 10,000 people, with expansion capacity to 30,000, and leasing industrial buildings to prevent public space overcrowding.
The effort involves collaboration between Tijuana, Baja California and the Mexican federal government, with new shelters and federal deportation plans in place.
Mexico is enhancing support for deportees through increased consular staff, a 24-hour call center and a smartphone app to help them reconnect with families and access resources.
