It is true that there are about half a million. maybe 600.000 people who come across our borders illegally every year. What we have done in the legislation we crafted together is we have required that there be a set of triggers that have to be met with respect to securing our borders. We will require that there be 18.000 new Border Patrol officers helping us secure our borders. We will require 370 miles of fencing to make sure that in those areas that are vulnerable on our border. those areas are secure. We will require 200 miles of vehicle barriers in other places to make sure that that border is secure both on the south end as well as the northern.
