Trump immigration policy

In 2025, President Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border, sealing it and barring asylum claims on US territory. He implemented mandatory detention for inadmissible aliens, enacted the Laken Riley Act requiring detention of immigrants charged with crimes, and imposed a travel ban on 19 countries. Policies include ending birthright citizenship, mass deportations with $150 billion funding, and restrictions on foreign nationals to enhance security, drastically reducing crossings.
