Trump Admin Considers Forcing Banks to Verify Customers' Citizenship in Immigration Crackdown Effort

The Trump administration is considering a new requirement for US banks to verify the citizenship status of all current and potential customers as part of its immigration enforcement efforts, a move aimed at reducing illegal immigration through the financial system. The proposal would require banks to ask customers about their immigration status when opening an account or conducting other transactions. This step is part of the president's broader push to crack down on undocumented immigrants. The exact details of the plan are still being finalized.
