Mr Trump has signed the order following his fifth day of the presidency and is cracking down on “sanctuary cities” including New York, San Francisco and Chicago, that refuse to hand over immigrants for deportation.
The new executive order underlines plans to “make public a comprehensive list of criminal actions committed by aliens” across the US.
Under the ruling there is also the chance of offences committed by any immigrant being published even if they are legally living in the country.
The order aims to “better inform the public regarding the public safety threats associated with sanctuary jurisdictions, the Secretary shall utilise the Declined Detainer Outcome Report or its equivalent and, on a weekly basis, make public a comprehensive list of criminal actions committed by aliens and any jurisdiction that ignored or otherwise failed to honour any detainers with respect to such aliens.”
Under the banner of the new order, entitled Border Security and Immigration Enforcement Improvements, Mr Trump brought into force a series of election pledges ranging from building a wall along the US-Mexico border and deporting illegal immigrants from the country.
There are also new plans for immigration detention centres to be put in place and to increase security by bringing in an extra 5,000 Border Patrol agents.
