T greenlights some pro-immigrant moves amid broader anti-migrant crackdown

President Donald Trump has built much of his political platform around cracking down on illegal immigration, from securing the southern border to increasing deportations. Since taking office, he has taken several hardline measures, including:

  • Declaring a national emergency at the border
  • Suspending refugee resettlement programs
  • Ending parole programs that allowed migrants into the U.S.
  • Dramatically increasing arrests of illegal immigrants inside the country

But not all of Trump’s immigration moves have been restrictive. In fact, he has also taken less-publicized actions that could benefit certain groups of immigrants on their path to U.S. citizenship.

Despite pausing most refugee resettlements, Trump recently made an exception for white Afrikaner farmers from South Africa. In a bold executive order, he accused the South African government of failing to protect Afrikaners from racially motivated attacks. As a result, his administration has begun prioritizing humanitarian relief and resettlement for Afrikaners who claim persecution.

“The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Homeland Security shall take appropriate steps, consistent with law, to prioritize humanitarian relief… for Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination.”

This move has sparked debate, as it contrasts with his general stance on refugee admissions. However, Trump has long spoken about the plight of white farmers in South Africa, making this a follow-through on a previous concern.

In another shift, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that as of January 22, green card applicants will no longer be required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination when applying for permanent residency.

This is a significant policy change considering that vaccine mandates were previously strictly enforced under the Biden administration. The new rule ensures that:

✅ Green card applicants won’t face delays or denials due to missing COVID-19 vaccine records.
✅ No additional evidence or vaccine documentation will be required for applications.
✅ The government will not issue Requests for Evidence or Notices of Intent to Deny based on vaccination status.

For many immigrants and vaccine skeptics, this move removes a major bureaucratic hurdle on the path to U.S. citizenship.

While Trump’s primary focus remains on curbing illegal immigration, these policy adjustments show that his administration is making selective exceptions—offering relief to certain refugee groups and easing restrictions for green card applicants.

Will there be more pro-immigrant moves ahead? That remains to be seen. However, one thing is clear—Trump’s approach to immigration continues to evolve, with strict enforcement for some and accommodations for others.
