Outgoing Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem will serve as “Special Envoy” to The Shield of the Americas, a new initiative launched by President Donald Trump to stop mass migration to the U.S. and thwart drug cartels, the president announced Thursday.
The Shield of the Americas is Trump’s newly-established summit that will feature allied leaders of Latin American countries, such as President Javier Milei of Argentina and President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador, to discuss and commit to stopping illegal immigration and drug cartels.
