Trump Administration Reroutes $250M Refugee Aid for $1,000 Exit Bonus, Returns Guatemalan Deportee Under Project Homecoming

The U.S. government, under the Trump administration, has rerouted $250 million in refugee aid to fund voluntary deportations through a new initiative called Project Homecoming. Under this program, migrants receive a free flight home along with a $1,000 exit bonus. Recently, a Guatemalan national who was deported to Mexico was returned to the United States after a judge ordered the Trump administration to facilitate his return. Legal representatives confirmed that the administration complied with the court's directive to bring the deportee back to the U.S.
