Immigration woes of Filipinos in US not raised during Marcos trip
Manila Bulletin
|July 24 2025
President Marcos bared that the ongoing issue on the immigration of Filipinos in the United States was not discussed during his official trip in Washington.
Marcos said in an interview that his three-day visit in the US was not the forum for the issue to be raised.
"It's not been raised. It was not - not in this forum. But we are, of course, well aware of the situation," Marcos said in a post-visit press briefing on Wednesday, July 23 (Manila time).
He underscored that the ongoing deportation of Filipino nationals was "not different" from the previous immigration moves America has done before in relation to immigrants facing cases.
