Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States

What it means

This order strengthens immigration enforcement within the U.S. by prioritizing removal of all unauthorized immigrants, particularly those with criminal records. It requires "sanctuary cities" to comply with federal immigration authorities or risk losing federal funding.

Expected impact

• Increased deportations of undocumented immigrants, including those with minor offenses
• Creation of an office to assist victims of crimes committed by removable aliens
• Hiring of 10,000 additional immigration officers
• Pressure on local governments to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement
• Expanded role for state and local police in immigration enforcement
• Weekly public reports on crimes committed by non-citizens
• Restoration of the Secure Communities program that facilitates information sharing between local law enforcement and immigration authorities
