President-elect Donald Trump is expected to revive several of his past immigration policies when he returns to the White House next month, and his incoming border czar said family detention centers will be one of them.

President Joe Biden ended the government’s policy of holding families in detention centers in 2021, one of several policies the Trump administration will likely change. Tom Homan, whom Trump has tapped as his border czar, told the Washington Post that the administration will have facilities for families who have crossed into the country during surges.

“We’re going to need to construct family facilities,” Homan said. “How many beds we’re going to need will depend on what the data says.”

Homan reiterated a vow that the administration would resume deporting families with U.S.-born children but illegal immigrant parents. He said the option of whether the whole family or just the illegal immigrant parents would be deported would be up to the parents.

“Here’s the issue,” Homan said. “You knew you were in the country illegally and chose to have a child. So you put your family in that position.”

Since being named Trump’s border czar for the incoming administration, Homan has been seen as a hawk on the issue, warning mayors and governors not to interfere in their efforts to deport illegal immigrants. Last month, Homan threatened to jail Denver Mayor Mike Johnston if he tried to block federal officials from carrying out deportations.

Homan has been strict with leaders in “sanctuary cities,” previously telling the Washington Examiner to “expect a lot of collateral arrests.”

“I mean, not priority criminal arrests. We can’t get the bad guy in jail. That means we have to go into the communities and find them, and there may be others. We expect a lot of collateral arrests,” Homan said.

However, the incoming border czar also struck a more affable tone in the conversation with the Washington Post, saying he wants to keep the faith of the country with the job the administration does in securing the border and enforcing immigration laws.

“We need to show the American people we can do this and not be inhumane about it,” Homan said. “We can’t lose the faith of the American people.”

The incoming Trump administration appears to be making border security and immigration a key focus, with the president-elect bringing up the conversation in discussions with the president of Mexico and the prime minister of Canada.

Trump warned Canadian and Mexican officials that if border security was not improved on their ends, he would impose a blanket 25% tariff on all imports. Since the threat, Trump has engaged with both countries on improvements to the borders between the respective countries and the United States.
