The National Border Patrol Council president declares that the 'status quo' at the southern border ends during Trump's time in office.
Paul Perez anticipates numerous alterations.
The NBPC president predicted significant changes to US immigration policy following President-elect Trump's victory in the 2024 election.
""We're going to witness significant alterations. We're going to witness a more secure border, similar to what we had during President Trump's first term," stated Paul Perez, the NBPC president of the labor union in southern Texas, on "America Reports" on Thursday."
Perez stated that there are many individuals with strong backgrounds and expertise who will be beneficial to work with, including Tom Homan, the former acting ICE director under Trump.
During the past three and a half years of the Biden-Harris administration, the president-elect advocated for the expulsion of immigrants who entered the country unlawfully.
Trump announced at a Mar-a-Lago press conference in August that our country will begin the largest mass deportation in history due to a lack of choice. It is not sustainable, and we will begin with violent criminals, followed by other criminals. Our local police will collaborate with us because they have extensive knowledge about the individuals involved.
The 45th president made substantial gains with Hispanic voters in the 2024 race, according to a Planet Chronicle Voter Analysis that identified immigration as a key issue.
In 2024, Trump received 42% of the Hispanic vote, a 7% increase from his 2020 performance. Additionally, he managed to flip Starr County in Texas, which had been blue for over 120 years.
In at least 30 years, no GOP presidential candidate has made as many gains along the Texas border as Trump did, according to Planet Chronicle Voter Analysis.
According to "America Reports" co-anchor John Roberts, Perez stated that the shift from Hispanic voters and the president-elect's gains were not a surprise.
The reason why the people here were amazed was due to the influx of criminals and illegal immigrants crossing the border. They saw it firsthand and became frustrated with the Biden administration's claim that the border was under control.
"People living on the border in some of the poorest areas in the country supported Trump not only due to the illegal immigrant influx but also because of the economic devastation they were experiencing. They made their decision based on facts, not on rhetoric. This was a significant shift, prompted by their firsthand experience of the situation. No one else has witnessed what they have seen."
Trump's inauguration as the 47th president may lead to an influx of migrants before he takes office.
"We may experience an influx due to the current administration's decision to maintain the status quo and allow as many people as possible to enter the country. However, once President Trump takes office, that will change, resulting in significant changes ahead."
