Invocation of the Alien Enemies Act Regarding the Invasion of the United States by Tren de Aragua
President Trump invokes the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to declare members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) as 'Alien Enemies,' authorizing their immediate apprehension, detention, and removal without standard immigration proceedings. The proclamation directs the Attorney General and Secretary of Homeland Security to execute regulations for summary detention and removal of Venezuelan TdA members aged 14+ who are not U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents.
