Abstract

The article argues that U.S. President Donald Trump's immigration laws and policies violated the equal protection rights of Latino men under the Fourteenth Amendment. It criticizes the laws for having a discriminatory motive because they unfairly target Latino males. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) revealed the increasing numbers of Latino men who were detained and deported. Also discussed is the utilization of the traditional equal protection analysis and case law by courts.
