Officials told reporters in a press call that Trump will sign an order clarifying language in the 14th Amendment and stating that the federal government "will not recognize automatic birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens born in the United States."
The 14th Amendment states, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
Trump advisers and some conservative legal scholars have previously argued that the idea of giving birthright citizenship to children of illegal immigrants is based on a misreading of the amendment.
Trump will direct the federal government to resume border wall construction, and will also end Biden parole policies - including the use of the CBP One app to parole migrants into the U.S., and the parole processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans (CHNV).
A second order will send U.S. troops for deployment to the southern and northern borders under U.S. Northern Command and will "instruct the military to prioritize our own borders and territorial integrity in strategic planning for its operations."
A third order will designate international cartels and organizations, including MS-13 and the bloodthirsty Tren de Aragua, as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGT). An FTO designation allows for targeted action against members, including financial penalties.
On Monday, incoming officials also said Trump will sign orders suspending refugee resettlement for four months and ending the ability for migrants to claim asylum by creating an immediate removal process without the possibility of asylum.
"We are going to end asylum and close the border to illegals," an official said.
Trump is expected to sign 10 executive orders related to border security and immigration just on Monday.
