On his first day in office, President Donald Trump issued a series of executive orders focusing on immigration, declaring a national emergency on unauthorized crossings at the US-Mexico border. Despite a decline in such crossings recently, Trump positioned military assistance for the Department of Homeland Security as necessary. Additionally, he sought to redefine citizenship by targeting birthright citizenship for US-born children of undocumented immigrants, anticipating legal challenges from civil rights groups. His orders reflect a hard stance on immigration while he expressed support for legal immigration.
