Trump reveals executive order signed in honor of Jocelyn Nungaray, 12-year-old allegedly killed by illegal migrants | 4 March 2025 | President Trump announced Tuesday that he named a national wildlife refuge in honor of Jocelyn Nungaray -- a 12-year-old Houston girl allegedly killed by a pair of illegal migrants. Trump revealed the heartfelt tribute as he introduced Alexis Nungaray, Jocelyn's mother, as one of his invited guests to his speech to a joint session of Congress. "Alexis, I promised that we would always remember your daughter, your magnificent daughter, and earlier tonight, I signed an order keeping my word to you," the president said. "One thing I have learned about Jocelyn is that she loved animals so much -- she loved nature. Across Galveston Bay, from where Jocelyn lived in Houston, you will find a magnificent national wildlife refuge -- a pristine, peaceful, 34,000 acre sanctuary for all of God's creatures on the edge of the Gulf of America," he continued. "Alexis, moments ago, I formally renamed that refuge in loving memory of your beautiful daughter, Jocelyn," Trump revealed, before asking Vice President JD Vance to hand him the signed order so he could show the young girl's mom, who struggled to hold back tears.
