Two of our three national representatives’ support President Donald Trump regarding border security, including building a wall where needed. To dismiss this affront to our country from unregulated immigration will cause huge expense for our government. Legal immigration is and will be available to all, but to sneak in and expect taxpayers to support you is absurd.
When I see all these young people marching to the Mexican border, I wonder who will work for change in Guatemala, Ecuador, Venezuela or Nicaragua when their young citizens flee for a better life in another country? Right now, that country is America. We can simply open the border and let everyone in, or control it with common-sense protection. Forcing Congress to make appropriations is the issue. If the politicians on the left continue to sabotage the President, nothing will ever get done.
