Trump Weighs 100 Executive Orders — Many on Border Security — for His First Day in Office

Trump has promised that on Day 1 he would address the border debacle Biden left behind.

President-elect Donald Trump met with the Senate GOP on Wednesday night and during that meeting that he and top advisers reviewed plans for 100 executive orders to be signed after Trump takes office on January 20. Senators who were in the meeting spoke to Axios and revealed that among those orders were plans for immigration and border security.

Trump has promised that on Day 1 he would address the border debacle left behind by President Joe Biden and his "border czar" Kamala Harris, who Trump bested in the recent presidential contest. Top adviser Stephen Miller was reportedly in that meeting with Republican Senators and spoke to those present about their plans, which include reinstating Title 42, the public health law that allows for the mass refusal of illegal immigrants over concerns about the spread of disease. It was widely used during the Covid pandemic.

Additionally, Miller said that the administration would make aggressive use of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which permits state and local law enforcement officers to aid Immigration and Customs Enforcement in carrying out deportations and other activities that have been strictly the purview of ICE. Trump has also been considering reimplementing the "remain in Mexico" policy, where those who come to the border to seek asylum must wait in Mexico or a third country, and not the US, while they await their hearing. Biden's policy was to allow illegal border crossers to apply for asylum and then be released into the United States.

The Trump administration will also get back to building the border wall, which was abandoned by the Biden administration. The building of a wall between Mexico and the US was a key campaign promise of Trump's first run for president in 2016 and propelled him into the White House. That wall was a point of contention with the Biden administration as many Democrats said it was inhumane.

On Biden's first days in office, he essentially flung the border wide open for illegal immigrants of all nations. He extended temporary protected status for those in the US from dangerous nations, reversed Trump-era policies to keep Americans safe, and ushered in the largest wave of illegal immigration the US has ever seen. His Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, even told immigrants "we're not saying don't come, we're saying don't come now," as caravans of people lined up at the border to gain entry.
