Vice President JD Vance, named vice chair of the 2026 FIFA World Cup by President Donald Trump, addressed attendees throughout a press convention on Might 6, 2025.
Whereas he expressed pleasure for the occasion, which will likely be co-hosted by the US, Canada, and Mexico, he issued a warning to vacationers planning to attend. Vance acknowledged that whereas guests from round 100 nations are welcome to return and benefit from the video games, they have to depart when the occasion ends, or else they’ll have to talk to Secretary Noem.
Secretary of Homeland Safety, Kristi Noem, forecasted over two million international guests for the occasion, and emphasised the necessity for adherence to visa guidelines. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy echoed this sentiment, reminding attendees to not overstay their visas.
This follows Trump’s earlier insurance policies on immigration, together with mass deportations and high-profile circumstances just like the deportation of Kilmar Armando Ábrego García to El Salvador.
The message was clear: benefit from the World Cup, however respect the US immigration guidelines.
