Immigration Directives

National Angel Family Day, 2026

This Presidential Proclamation, issued by Donald J. Trump, designates February 22, 2026, as National Angel Family Day to honor Americans killed by undocumented immigrants and victims of fentanyl trafficking.

The document strongly reaffirms a commitment to aggressive immigration enforcement, citing specific, tragic crimes allegedly committed by undocumented individuals, the signing of the Laken Riley Act, and recent success in reducing border crossings.

The proclamation also calls upon Congress to pass Kate's Law and urges public officials to end lawlessness related to immigration and drug flow.

Protecting the National Security and Welfare of the United States and its Citizens from Criminal Actors and Other Public Safety Threats

This Presidential Action, issued on February 6, 2026, establishes a policy to protect U.S. welfare and security by enhancing the ability of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to access Criminal History Record Information (CHRI) maintained by Federal criminal justice agencies, specifically the Department of Justice. Furthermore, the action authorizes the Secretary of Homeland Security to exchange CHRI concerning felony convictions with vetted foreign partners, such as Visa Waiver Program countries, on a reciprocal basis solely for border security and immigration screening purposes, ensuring all exchanges are governed by agreements that safeguard individual privacy.

National Day of Patriotic Devotion, 2026

President Donald J. Trump issued a Proclamation designating January 20, 2026, as the National Day of Patriotic Devotion, marking the first anniversary of his inauguration and celebrating the administration's achievements in areas including border security, economic revival through deregulation and tax cuts, strengthening the military, and restoring perceived national values and American strength on the world stage.

This document provides a compilation of numerous individuals nominated by the President to various high-level federal positions, including roles within executive departments, independent agencies, ambassadorships, and U.S. Attorney offices.

The listings specify the nominee's name, their proposed role, the agency or location, and often denote whether the appointment is to fill an expired term, a vacancy, or a newly created position, detailing the necessary Senate confirmation required for these appointments to take effect.

Safeguarding Venezuelan Oil Revenue for the Good of the American and Venezuelan People

This Presidential Action, issued under the authority granted by IEEPA and the NEA, declares a national emergency to safeguard "Foreign Government Deposit Funds" held by the U.S. Treasury on behalf of the Government of Venezuela from attachment or other judicial processes.

The President finds that allowing such process would materially harm U.S. national security and foreign policy by interfering with stability efforts in Venezuela and stemming threats like illegal immigration and narcotics flow.

The order directs the Secretary of the Treasury to hold these funds solely in a custodial capacity, under the direction of the Secretary of State, for public or diplomatic purposes, expressly overriding any previous executive orders affecting these specific funds.

Restricting and Limiting the Entry of Foreign Nationals to Protect the Security of the United States

This Presidential Proclamation, building upon Executive Order 14161 and Proclamation 10949, continues and modifies restrictions on the entry of foreign nationals from specific countries deemed to have deficient screening, vetting, and information-sharing capabilities that pose national security and public safety risks.

The President finds that unrestricted entry from these nations is detrimental to U.S. interests, citing issues like unreliable civil documentation, widespread corruption, cooperation failures (such as refusing to accept repatriated nationals), and high visa overstay rates.

The proclamation fully suspends entry for nationals of 19 countries (12 continuing from previous action and 7 new additions) and partially suspends or modifies restrictions for 4 others, while also suspending entry for individuals using travel documents issued or endorsed by the Palestinian Authority, and it narrows exceptions, particularly for family-based immigrant visas.

America 250: Presidential Message on the Anniversary of the Monroe Doctrine

This document, framed as a presidential message related to the anniversary of the Monroe Doctrine, reaffirms the U.S. commitment to sovereignty in the Western Hemisphere, introducing a "Trump Corollary" that asserts American control over the destiny of the hemisphere, free from foreign or globalist institutions.

The administration highlights achievements such as restoring privileged Panama Canal access, bolstering maritime dominance, disrupting international supply chain practices, halting drug flows from Mexico, securing the southern border against illegal immigration, dismantling narco-terrorist networks, and securing new trade deals with several Central and South American nations as evidence of this vigorous, America-first approach to hemispheric leadership and security.

Designation of Certain Muslim Brotherhood Chapters as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists

This Presidential Action invokes constitutional and statutory authority, including the Immigration and Nationality Act and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, to initiate the formal designation process for certain chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood located in Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists.

The stated purpose is to counter violence and destabilization campaigns allegedly carried out by these transnational groups that threaten the security of U.S. citizens and interests, mandating a joint report from the Secretaries of State and Treasury within 30 days to guide subsequent designation actions.
