The State Border Security Reinforcement Fund, managed by the Department of Homeland Security, will receive $11 billion in fiscal year 2025 and can be used for border wall construction, border surveillance, ground preparation for border barriers, and relocating undocumented immigrants from small population centers. The State Criminal Alien Prosecution and Detention Fund, managed by the Department of Justice, will receive $3.5 billion in fiscal year 2025 and can be used for locating and apprehending undocumented immigrants, investigating and prosecuting crimes committed by immigrants, supporting court operations related to these prosecutions, detaining immigrants, and providing logistical support to law enforcement agencies.
