Abstract

A recent study conducted by the University of California in Merced examined the impact of immigration enforcement policies on the physical and mental health of Asian and Latinx immigrants in the United States. The research found that experiences with immigration enforcement, such as raids and deportations, were associated with poorer self-rated health and increased psychological distress for both groups. The study highlights the negative health outcomes linked to the overall immigration enforcement system, emphasizing the need for further research and support for immigrant communities.
