Abstract

President-elect Donald Trump is preparing to implement a series of executive actions aimed at tightening border security and addressing illegal immigration in the US. These actions include declaring a national emergency at the border, deploying additional personnel from the Pentagon, ending the "catch and release" policy, reinstating the "Remain in Mexico" policy for asylum seekers, resuming border wall construction, and designating gangs and cartels involved in human smuggling as terrorist organizations. Trump also plans to end automatic birthright citizenship for children of undocumented individuals and suspend refugee admissions for six months. The administration aims to prioritize national security and public safety concerns related to immigration through these measures. [Extracted from the article]
