US reasserts unilateral security authority over international sporting commitments, potentially straining USMCA relations with Mexico/Canada and signaling hardline immigration stance to allies. FIFA's soft power diminished by inability to enforce ticket-holder protections.

Security and law enforcement
International visitors face visa uncertainty and deportation risks, likely reducing attendance from Latin America and other regions. Domestic consumers may experience higher event prices due to reduced competition and increased security costs. Travel insurance and visa services may see increased demand.
Potential FIFA sanctions or relocation threats; diplomatic tensions with co-host nations Canada and Mexico; possible Congressional pressure to clarify visa guarantees; precedent for future major sporting events regarding immigration enforcement policies.
