IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING
Watch for expanded TPS terminations or workforce visa restrictions affecting healthcare/caregiving sectors, and track whether the administration offers any workforce exemption for essential caregiving roles.
Why This Score
This is a substantive but narrow enforcement-driven story about immigration policy's downstream effects on a specific caregiver workforce; it reflects real governance harm (civil rights/due process) but lacks scale, structural durability, or clear evidence of institutional capture or power-consolidation to cross the List A threshold. It also lacks the outrage/meme dynamics or clear strategic-distraction signals needed for List B, landing both scores in the low-salience range.
