National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, 2025

President Donald Trump has proclaimed April 2025 as National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, emphasizing the need to address sexual violence exacerbated by illegal immigration and past border policies. In response, he has declared a national emergency at the southern border, designated cartels as terrorist organizations, and enacted the Laken Riley Act to detain certain convicted illegal aliens. This proclamation underscores his administration's focus on border security and crime prevention, which could have significant legal and political implications, particularly regarding immigration policy and law enforcement priorities.
