Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, representing Texas' 30th district, has been actively sharing her views on recent executive orders signed by former President Donald Trump. In a series of tweets, she provides an analysis of these orders and their implications on various rights and freedoms.
On January 22, 2025, Congresswoman Crockett stated that "Yesterday, Trump signed more executive orders on Inauguration Day than any President in history." She announced her intention to break down what she described as "Trump's attacks on your rights and freedoms," starting with immigration rights and birthright citizenship.
In another tweet posted the same day, Crockett discussed Trump's 'Alien Enemies' order. She noted that this order "resurrects the law that detained Japanese-Americans in internment camps during WWII and allows President to detain/deport natives & citizens of an 'enemy nation'." She highlighted the potential impacts as families being deported or placed into detention camps without due process.
Additionally, Congresswoman Crockett addressed Trump's 'Military Deployment' order in a separate tweet. According to her post from January 22, 2025, this order "sends military personnel to patrol our U.S. border." She expressed concerns about increased surveillance in border communities and the heightened risk of violence affecting citizens, non-citizens, and servicemembers.
