Secretary Kristi Noem announced on February 25, 2025, that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will fully enforce the Immigration and Nationality Act, a law equipping the government with tools to track and penalize illegal aliens. This move, detailed in an official DHS press release, reflects the Trump administration’s unwavering commitment to border security. On February 26, Noem tweeted her stance, amplifying the patriotic call to action. Golden Age Patriots stands firmly behind this decision, a critical step to reclaim America’s sovereignty.
“Illegal aliens must register with the federal government. This has been the law of the land for decades & we will enforce it. If they register and leave now, they may have the opportunity to return and live the American dream. If they don’t, they will face the consequences.” — @Sec_Noem, February 26, 2025
A Long-Overdue Enforcement of the Law
The Immigration and Nationality Act, sidelined for years, mandates that illegal aliens register, update their addresses, and depart voluntarily—or face penalties. Noem’s announcement ends decades of neglect, targeting those who willfully defy these rules with fines or jail time. It’s a practical fix to a broken system, encouraging self-deportation over chaotic roundups. This saves lives, protects law enforcement, and preserves resources for Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
President Trump’s Vision for a Secure America
President Trump’s leadership drives this enforcement, fulfilling his promise to prioritize American safety. DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin underscored this in the press release: “President Trump and Secretary Noem have a clear message for those in our country illegally: leave now.” It’s a fair deal—leave voluntarily, and there’s a chance to return legally. Trump’s strategy balances toughness with reason, proving that secure borders don’t require endless spending—just resolute action.
The Failures of the Past: A System in Chaos
Contrast this with the Biden era, where illegal crossings soared and border communities suffered. Lax enforcement turned the DHS into a bystander, leaving taxpayers to foot the bill for unchecked migration. Crime and trafficking flourished as bureaucrats ignored laws like the Immigration and Nationality Act. Noem’s bold step corrects that, exposing the fallout of past weakness and reaffirming that America’s laws aren’t suggestions—they’re mandates.
A Safer, Stronger America
Enforcing these laws slashes costs and boosts security. Self-deportation frees up CBP and ICE to tackle real threats—cartels, smugglers, and terrorists—not just process endless waves of violators. It’s a win for taxpayers and a blow to those who’ve exploited our generosity. By restoring the rule of law, the Trump administration ensures America remains a nation of order, not open borders.
