On March 2, 2025, the President issued an amendment to Executive Order 14193, which addresses the flow of illicit drugs across the northern border.

This action is part of ongoing efforts to effectively manage border security and drug trafficking while ensuring compliance with relevant laws and budgetary considerations.
