00:00News about high-profile arrest and deportations have characterized Trump's first 100 days back

00:09in office, with his administration saying he is making good on campaign promises to clamp down

00:15on irregular migration. In Southern California, Rosalba Hernandez, a mother of five, is worried

00:24about immigration rates. Rosalba Hernandez used to keep her children's birth certificates

00:50close at hand in case an earthquake struck her part of California. But since Donald Trump
