On his first day of his second term, U.S. President Donald Trump announced aggressive immigration measures, including declaring a national emergency at the southern border. The policies focus on stricter border enforcement, resuming the “remain in Mexico” program for asylum seekers, and granting the Pentagon authority to support border security efforts. Trump also proposed challenging birthright citizenship, targeting the 14th Amendment.
The measures have sparked mixed reactions. Supporters argue they protect jobs and national security, while critics call them harmful to vulnerable immigrants and divisive for American society. Activists warn of intensified racial tensions and reduced U.S. appeal for global talent. Internationally, Trump’s policies have raised concerns in Latin America, particularly over his designation of drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, which Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum has opposed. The measures are expected to face significant legal and political challenges.
