| Key takeaways from the report: Expanded DoD presence on the southern border: Over 10,000 service members are now supporting a newly designated 63-mile military zone in Texas. A Joint Task Force - Southern Border (JTF-SB) has been launched to unify efforts between the Pentagon and CBP. Executive orders transform policy: A series of sweeping executive actions signed on Inauguration Day have suspended entry for certain groups, tightened asylum access, and declared a national emergency that expands military authority at the border. CBP's evolving mission: Apprehensions at the southwest border have plummeted 93% year-over-year, while the agency has ramped up efforts against drug trafficking, enforced anti-forced-labor tariffs, and enhanced agricultural protections. These major shifts point to a dramatically intensified border security posture and highlight the evolving role of both military and federal agencies.
