President Trump shows children a trading card of himself during the White House Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn on April 21, 2025. July 5 will see the launch of $1,000 stock investments funded by the Treasury Department for children born in this country during President Trump’s reign. And Trump’s campaign against undocumented children is just beginning on multiple fronts. American authorities forced U.S.-born children to leave for Mexico with their parents during the Great Depression, arguing they would become a welfare burden at the expense of white children. 187, which passed in 1994, would’ve banned undocumented children from attending California public schools from kindergarten to higher education.
