Issues: Border Security

America’s security from foreigners seeking to do it harm is a nonpartisan issue—Americans want and Americans are entitled to security, the bedrock function of any government. I support the creation of physical barriers like walls and fences on our Northern and Southern borders; the addition of thousands of new Border Patrol agents; and the use of advanced technologies like aerial surveillance at our borders. Without secure borders, many of the freedoms and liberties guaranteed to us are meaningless.
