Trump’s 100-Day Plan: Major Promises for the American Voter
As Donald Trump prepares his 100-day agenda, he has highlighted several commitments he made to voters during his 2024 campaign. In his victory speech, Trump emphasized that this will be his guiding principle: “Promises made, promises kept. We will fulfill our commitments.” Some of his key campaign promises are listed below:
Economic Reforms
Exit polls showed that voters care most about the economy. Trump said he will revamp the economy to curb rising inflation, which happened during President Joe Biden’s tenure. He also vowed to slash taxes, scrapping taxes on Social Security payments.
Rollback on Climate Regulations
He has vowed to dismantle climate regulations, following his campaign pledge to withdraw the US from the Paris climate accord. Rolled on his agenda among other proposals are to scrap environmental policies for autos, and boost US fossil fuel production.
View on Legislation for Abortion During his debate with Kamala Harris, Trump said he would not advocate for a federal abortion ban. After the 2022 Supreme Court ruling that eliminated the constitutional right to abortion, Trump said he would let states determine their own abortion policies.
Clemency for January 6 defendants
Trump has said that he will pardon some of the detainees arrested for their role in the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riots. Trump was also accused of inciting the riots when he urged people to overturn the election victory of Biden.

Despite the heavy logistical and legal challenges the proposal is going to face, reports from BBC indicate that Trump is committed to what might be the largest deportation effort in US history.
Comprehend the Deportation Procedure
Gain insight into the workings of the deportation procedure and discover avenues for assistance if you are confronted with deportation.
Deportation refers to the process of expelling a noncitizen from the United States due to violations of immigration law.
The U.S. government may detain and deport noncitizens under circumstances such as:
Engaging in criminal activities
Presenting a danger to public safety
Breaching the terms of their visa
What occurs when an individual is detained by immigration?
A foreign national may be confined in a detention facility pending trial or deportation. It is advisable to learn how to locate someone who has been detained by ICE.
Following detention, a noncitizen may appear before a judge in immigration court as part of the deportation (removal) process. In certain instances, a noncitizen may face expedited removal without the opportunity to attend a hearing in immigration court. Expedited removal can occur when a noncitizen:
Enters the U.S. without valid travel documents
Utilizes counterfeit travel documents
Fails to adhere to the conditions of their visa or other entry documentation
Immigration Court Hearings and Decisions
The immigration court, part of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), adjudicates the relevant case.
What happens when an individual is deported?
Most deportations are executed via air travel at the expense of the U.S. government, while others may involve a combination of air and ground transportation. Foreign nationals convicted of nonviolent offenses may qualify for Rapid REPAT, allowing them to be released from incarceration to voluntarily return to their home country.
If a judge determines that deportation should proceed, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) enforces the removal order.
Prior to the execution of the removal, you may have the option to depart the U.S. at your own expense, a process referred to as voluntary departure.
