President Trump Is Back in the White House

What can we expect in the first 100 days?

January 29, 2025

 

Dear Friend,

 

The work to restore America began immediately upon President Donald Trump's swearing in last Monday, January 20. My House Republican colleagues and I passed the Laken Riley Act, which hit the President's desk for his signature soon afterwards. This important bill will ensure that we keep criminal illegals off our streets and out of our communities. We must also restore American sovereignty and secure our border, which is why in just over a week, Trump has also issued Executive Orders to:

  • Declare a national emergency at the border
  • Resume border wall construction
  • Deploy4,000 active-duty military personnel to the border
  • Reinstate the "Remain in Mexico" policy to reform our broken asylum system
  • End the"Catch and Release" of illegals who are encountered upon entry
  • DesignateMexican drug Cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs)
  • Deploy ICE agents to begin deportations of criminal illegal aliens

Thankfully, America has turned the corner on the past four years of failed border policies. Our Republican House Majority will continue to work closely with the Trump Administration to make sure we deliver on an America First agenda that prioritizes our citizens' safety and well-being.

 



For Texas & Liberty,

 

 

Rep. Pat Fallon

U.S. Congressman
