As President Donald Trump’s administration seeks to tackle the nation’s illegal immigration problem, individuals whose relatives were killed by illegal immigrants thanked the president during a ceremony on Monday.
Allyson Phillips, the mother of Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student who was slain by a Venezuelan man on Feb. 22, 2024, offered heartfelt thanks to the president.
Phillips told Trump that he is doing “a thankless job that most people just wouldn’t do,” noting, “I just can’t thank you enough.”
Jody Jones, who described how his brother Rocky was shot “eight times at point-blank range,” said he is “sick and tired” of Democrats talking about “criminal, illegal aliens” getting torn away from their families.
“What about us? What about the American family? What about us? We mean somethin’ too. And this man right here understands it,” he said.

“I love America. I love Donald Trump. I love my family,” he said.
“Thank you very much Donald Trump. President Trump, you are the man,” he added.
The president signed a proclamation on Monday declaring Feb. 22, 2026, as National Angel Family Day.
