Speech #1090119048

Republicans passed legislation to strengthen the border late last year. and we did it with very little Democratic support. That has to change. An overwhelming majority of Americans believe the lawlessness and the disregard for our laws inherent in illegal immigration is damaging to our society and a serious. serious risk to our national security. We have watched some try to equate legal immigration and legal immigrants with those whose first act. their very first act coming into this country is breaking a law. It is breaking our law by running across the border. That is an insult to every individual who complied with our policies and followed the appropriate process to get here.
