                Memorandum of December 16, 2025

                
Denial of Presidential Permit for the Kickapoo 
                Traditional Tribe of Texas

                Memorandum for the Secretary of State

                I have reviewed the Presidential Permit Application 
                Kickapoo International Bridge dated December 30, 2024, 
                submitted to you by the Kickapoo Traditional Tribe of 
                Texas (the ``Applicant''), to construct, maintain, and 
                operate a commercial and personally owned vehicle 
                crossing located on the United Sates border with Mexico 
                in Eagle Pass, Texas, as well as additional information 
                provided to you by the Applicant (collectively, the 
                ``Application''), in accordance with 33 U.S.C. 535d and 
                associated procedures.

                Pursuant to 33 U.S.C. 535d(c), you recommended that 
                issuing the Presidential Permit is not in the foreign 
                policy interest of the United States. Having fully 
                considered the information presented by the Applicant 
                and based on a review of all of the information 
                available, I accept your recommendation. I have 
                determined that the project described in the 
                Application is not in the United States national 
                interest. Therefore, by the authority vested in me as 
                President by the constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, including 33 U.S.C. 535d(d), I hereby 
                deny the requested Presidential Permit submitted by the 
                Applicant. You shall provide notice of my decision to 
                the Applicant.

                You are authorized and directed to publish this 
                memorandum in the Federal Register.

                THE WHITE HOUSE,
