The President issued Executive Order 14229 to honor Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl tragically killed by individuals in the United States illegally. The order renames the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge in Texas as the "Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge" to commemorate her life. The Secretary of the Interior is directed to ensure all federal references reflect this new name. The order states it does not create any legal rights enforceable against the United States.
