The White House on Wednesday summarized U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping crackdown this week at the U.S.-Mexico border.



Trump took office on Monday and issued a raft of executive orders that aim to clamp down on illegal immigration and advance his goal of deporting millions of immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally. He had made immigration a key issue of his election campaign last year.



The White House on Wednesday released a fact sheet related to an order Trump signed on Monday, his first day in office. No additional order was signed on Wednesday.



"President Trump is using every lever of his executive power to secure our nation's borders. This is the number one promise that he made to the American people on the campaign trail," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in an interview on Fox News on Wednesday.
