00:00President Donald Trump has been signing a number of executive orders on his first day in office,
00:05something that he pledged he would do.
00:07And much of the action coming on day one and early in his term
00:11is expected to be focused around his signature issue of immigration.
00:15Here are some of what President Donald Trump has said he wants to do with executive orders on that issue.
00:20Much of the executive action on the U.S.-Mexico border is taken from Trump's first-term playbook.
00:26He said that he will declare a national emergency at the border,
00:29send U.S. troops to help support immigration agents, and restrict refugees and asylum.
00:35He's also pledged to restart a policy that forced asylum seekers to wait over the border in Mexico,
00:41but officials haven't said whether Mexico would accept migrants again.
00:45Trump is also promising to end birthright citizenship,
00:48but it's unclear how he'd do it since it's enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.
00:53One thing Trump has already done is end the CPP-1 app,
00:57a Biden-era border app that gave legal entry to nearly one million immigrants.
