US President Donald Trump on Monday began issuing a raft of expected executive orders on immigration, energy and other issues, moving swiftly on some of his campaign pledges mere hours after being sworn in for a second term.
Among the numerous orders on immigration, Trump is ending the Joe Biden administration’s “catch-and-release” policy that allowed migrants into the community while awaiting court hearings and reinstating the “remain-in-Mexico” policy that requires asylum seekers to live in northern Mexico during their US court proceedings.
