[Trump Administration Transfers Jurisdiction Over California Border Lands to Strengthen Border Security] 1. During the Trump administration, U.S. officials announced the transfer of jurisdiction over approximately 760 acres of public land in San Diego and Impelli County, California, to the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Department of the Interior stated that this move was intended to "establish a defense zone to support ongoing border security operations." 2. According to the Associated Press, large areas along the U.S. border have been placed under military jurisdiction for several months. Relevant laws authorize military personnel to arrest trespassers on military facilities or property and to bring further charges under applicable laws, potentially leading to longer prison sentences for immigrants illegally entering military areas. The report also noted that more than 7,000 troops have been deployed to the border region to support border operations, equipped with corresponding military surveillance equipment.
