Trump plans executive orders reshaping immigration policy

Upon taking office, President Donald Trump plans to sign a series of executive orders aimed at overhauling immigration policies, including declaring a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border and significantly increasing military involvement in border security. Key measures include the suspension of asylum processes, efforts to end birthright citizenship, and a comprehensive crackdown on illegal immigration, which Trump described as the largest deportation operation in American history. Additionally, Trump intends to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, a move criticized by opponents as purely performative. The proposed actions signal a return to Trump's hardline immigration stance, with immediate legal challenges anticipated from advocacy groups. The administration also plans to categorize criminal cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, intensifying the focus on perceived national security threats. As these plans unfold, the response from immigrant advocacy groups is expected to be swift and robust.
