In his first week back in office, President Trump executed controversial immigration policies, declaring a national emergency at the southern U.S. border, reinstating first-term policies, and suspending the refugee resettlement program. Many actions are immediately impactful, like suspending asylum seekers, while others require legal and financial hurdles. Experts highlight the pervasive confusion and fear among immigrant communities caused by these sudden changes. Trump's actions are accompanied by commitments to deploy military resources to enforce border measures, signaling a tough stance on immigration and raising questions about the legal implications of his policies.
What is particularly evident already about these actions is the confusion, fear, and uncertainty these policies are already evoking for immigrant families and their communities.
It is necessary for the Armed Forces to take all appropriate action to assist the Department of Homeland Security in obtaining full operational control of the southern border.
