Trump administration weighs citizenship checks for bank customers amid immigration crackdown
The Trump administration is reportedly weighing a plan to require banks to verify the citizenship status of current and future customers as part of a hardline immigration crackdown. The move could come as an executive order, but officials say plans aren’t finalized and there are legal/operational questions. Industry sources warn that verifying citizenship for all customers would be unworkable and could force banks to assist in deportation efforts.
