Washington Democratic U.S. Rep. Pramila Jayapal of Seattle said she’s prepared to fight certain proposed policies of President-elect Donald Trump.

The chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus in Washington, D.C., said she’s focused on the administration’s immigration agenda.

“Family separation, mass detentions, those kinds of things is what was promised by the Trump administration and I think what we’re going to have to fight,” she said during a news conference Monday.

The incoming administration includes new “border czar” Tom Homan — he led Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) during Trump’s first term as president.

Speaking to CBS’ “60 Minutes,” Homan pushed back on claims that the government would be conducting mass raids or building camps to hold undocumented immigrants.

“Think we’re going to continue to see a number of people that have disturbing histories being appointed to many of these positions,” Jayapal said. “We’re going to have to figure out how we fight that best.”

The president-elect also chose immigration hardliner Stephen Miller to be his deputy chief of staff.

is putting an emphasis so far on aides and allies who were his strongest backers during the 2024 campaign. Here’s a look at who he’s selected so far.

Susie Wiles, chief of staff

Wiles, 67,聽聽to Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign and its de facto manager.

Wiles has a background in Florida politics. She helped Ron DeSantis win his first race for Florida governor. Six years later, she was key to Trump’s defeat of him in the 2024 Republican primary.

Wiles鈥� hire was Trump鈥檚 first major decision as president-elect and one that could be a defining test of his incoming administration considering her close relationship with the president-elect. Wiles is said to have earned Trump’s trust in part by guiding what was the most disciplined of Trump’s three presidential campaigns.

Wiles was able to help keep Trump on track as few others have, not by criticizing his impulses, but by winning his respect by demonstrating his success after taking her advice.

Mike Waltz, national security adviser

Trump asked Waltz, a retired Army National Guard officer and war veteran, to be his national security adviser, a person familiar with the matter said Monday.

The person spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the matter before Trump made a formal announcement.

The move would put Waltz at the forefront of a litany of national security crises, ranging from the ongoing effort to provide weapons to Ukraine and escalating worries about the growing alliance between Russia and North Korea to the persistent attacks in the Middle East by Iran proxies and the push for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas and Hezbollah.

Waltz is a three-term GOP congressman from east-central Florida. He served multiple tours in Afghanistan and also worked in the Pentagon as a policy adviser when Donald Rumsfeld and Robert Gates were defense chiefs.

He is considered hawkish on China, and called for a U.S. boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing due to its involvement in the origin of COVID-19 and its ongoing mistreatment of the minority Muslim Uighur population.

Tom Homan, 鈥榖order czar鈥�

Homan, 62,聽聽with Trump鈥檚 top priority of carrying out the largest deportation operation in the nation鈥檚 history.

Homan, who served under Trump in his first administration leading U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, was widely expected to be offered a position related to the border, an issue Trump made central to his campaign.

Though Homan has insisted such a massive undertaking would be humane, he has long been a loyal supporter of Trump’s policy proposals, suggesting at a July conference in Washington that he would be willing to “run the biggest deportation operation this country鈥檚 ever seen.鈥�

Democrats have criticized Homan for defending Trump’s 鈥渮ero tolerance鈥� policy on border crossings during his first administration, which led to the separation of thousands of parents and children seeking asylum at the border.

Elise Stefanik, United Nations ambassador

Stefanik is a聽聽and one of Trump’s staunchest defenders going back to his first impeachment.

Elected to the House in 2014, Stefanik was selected by her GOP House colleagues as House Republican Conference chair in 2021, when former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney was removed from the post after publicly criticizing Trump for falsely claiming he won the 2020 election. Stefanik, 40, has served in that role ever since as the third-ranking member of House leadership.

Stefanik鈥檚 questioning of university presidents over antisemitism on their campuses helped lead to two of those presidents resigning, further raising her national profile.

If confirmed, she would represent American interests at the U.N. as Trump vows to end the war waged by Russia against Ukraine beginning in 2022. He has also called for peace as Israel continues its offensive against Hamas in Gaza and its invasion of Lebanon to target Hezbollah.

Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff for policy

Miller, an聽, was a vocal spokesperson during the presidential campaign for Trump’s priority of mass deportations. The 39-year-old was a senior adviser during Trump’s first administration.

Miller has been a central figure in some of Trump’s policy decisions, notably his move to separate thousands of immigrant families.

Trump argued throughout the campaign that the nation’s economic, national security and social priorities could be met by deporting people who are in the United States illegally. Since Trump left office in 2021, Miller has served as the president of America First Legal, an organization made up of former Trump advisers aimed at challenging the Biden administration, media companies, universities and others over issues such as free speech and national security.

Lee Zeldin, Environmental Protection Agency

Trump has chosen former New York Rep.聽聽to serve as his pick to lead the聽.

Zeldin does not appear to have any experience in environmental issues but is a longtime supporter of the former president.

The 44-year-old former U.S. House member from New York wrote on , 鈥淲e will restore US energy dominance, revitalize our auto industry to bring back American jobs, and make the US the global leader of AI.鈥� 鈥淲e will do so while protecting access to clean air and water,鈥� he added.

During his campaign, Trump often attacked the Biden administration’s promotion of electric vehicles and incorrectly referred to a tax credit for EV purchases as a government mandate. Trump also often told his audiences during the campaign his administration would 鈥淒rill, baby, drill,鈥� referring to his support for expanded petroleum exploration.

In a statement, Trump said Zeldin 鈥渨ill ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will be enacted in a way to unleash the power of American businesses, while at the same time maintaining the highest environmental standards, including the cleanest air and water on the planet.鈥�
