President Donald Trump is establishing a task force on the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

The 2028 Games will be the first Olympics to be hosted by the U.S. since the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Utah.

“The L.A. Olympics is shaping up to be a wonderful moment for America. It’s going to be incredible. It’s so exciting,” Trump said Tuesday as he signed an executive order at the White House establishing the task force.

The executive order calls for the task force to coordinate security and planning for the Games, streamline visa processing and credentialing for the athletes, coaches, media and other visitors coming to the U.S.

Trump said that “we’ll do anything necessary to keep the Olympics safe,” adding that could potentially include deploying “our National Guard or military.”
