101st Anniversary of The United States Border Patrol

The proclamation celebrates the 101st anniversary of the United States Border Patrol. It highlights a National Emergency declaration at the southern border, which granted the Department of Defense additional authority to support the Federal Government response to a crisis. The order also designates certain transnational organizations as foreign terrorist groups, resumes border wall construction, reinstates the Remain in Mexico policy, ends asylum for illegal border crossers, deploys soldiers to protect borders, and implements a large deportation operation. Within the first 100 days, daily border encounters reportedly dropped 95 percent, and migrant crossings reportedly declined by 99.99 percent.
