I said: How did you get here? He said: I had to transit eight countries to get here. That is a pretty complicated itinerary for anybody even under normal circumstances. but what it demonstrates is there are networks not just in Central America and Mexico but around the world that feed people into this network in order to immigrate to the United States illegally. What we are doing is nothing about that. Last year people were detained at the southwestern border from 140 different countries. If someone goes down to the outside of Falfurrias. TX. down in South Texas. they have rescue beacons the Border Patrol has put out. If someone made this long trip from Central America through Mexico in the hot weather. lets say. and they are dehydrated. they are worried about their life and their health. they can actually go hit this rescue beacon and the Border Patrol will come pick them up which is maybe not their first choice. but it is better than dying from exposure. The languages of those rescue beacons. the ones I saw outside the checkpoint at Falfurrias. TXthey are in English.
