Securing Our Borders

On January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14165, titled "Securing Our Borders." This order directs the federal government to take comprehensive actions to secure the U.S. borders, primarily focusing on the southern border. Key measures include constructing physical barriers, deploying additional personnel, and enhancing detention practices to prevent illegal entry and ensure the removal of unauthorized immigrants. The order also mandates the resumption of the Migrant Protection Protocols and adjusts parole policies to align with these objectives. Additionally, it calls for increased international cooperation and prioritizes the prosecution of border-related offenses.
