Governor Jeff Landry Partners with President Donald Trump to Launch “Operation GEAUX”

Summary
Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry has announced a new initiative called Operation GEAUX, a historic partnership with federal immigration authorities (ICE) to crack down on criminal illegal aliens in the state. Under this program, state and local law enforcement will be empowered to enforce federal immigration laws, aiming to remove dangerous individuals from communities through enhanced screening, identification, and a large-scale public awareness campaign.

Governor Landry stated that those who are in the U.S. illegally and engage in criminal activity will face deportation or imprisonment, framing the initiative as a direct fulfillment of President Trump’s commitment to law and order.

The announcement comes in response to what the administration calls a dismantling of immigration enforcement under the Biden Administration, which they say led to record levels of illegal immigration. Louisiana’s estimated undocumented population stood at around 97,000 in 2021, and is believed to be higher now.

The program signals a shift toward stricter immigration enforcement in Louisiana and aligns with the Trump administration’s broader national goals of restoring security and reducing unlawful entry.
