I just want to point out that declaring a state of emergency to "deal with" illegal immigrants will allow the construction of large camps all over the country where undesirables can be 'concentrated' for 'processing'.

After rounding up illegal immigrants, maybe they'll invalidate the status of legal immigrants that knowingly employed, illegal immigrants. Or housed illegal immigrants. Or defended illegal immigrants. Of course these people will need to be detained in the same camps while it all gets processed.

The condition of the camps won't be great, maybe the detainees can work in specially approved facilities while immigration status gets processed, this will help alleviate the cost of camp maintenance and improve living conditions.

Maybe the detainees can be rented out to local plantations to subsidize the cost of feeding them.
