Democrats plan immigration oversight push after midterm wins

Democrats won control of Congress in the midterm elections and are preparing to challenge President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement policies, including investigations into federal agencies. Their plans face limits due to Trump's veto power and his promotion of Stephen Miller to chief of staff. Democrats aim to use congressional oversight to probe Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security for alleged abuses, corruption, and misuse of funds. About 6 in 10 voters said the administration's enforcement actions had "gone too far," according to an AP Voter Poll, and Democrats can now subpoena witnesses. Some Democrats propose comprehensive immigration reform, including a citizenship pathway, but Republicans have frontloaded $150 billion for enforcement and funded ICE for three years. Trump can veto any legislation, and Miller's promotion signals continued hard-line policies, leaving Democrats with limited practical power to alter the immigration landscape.
