Issues: Executive Branch Immigration

U.S. Representative Bill Flores (R-Texas) issued the following statement regarding President Trump's executive actions to improve border security and enforcement of immigration laws:

"It is encouraging to see a renewed sense of priority toward border security and immigration enforcement coming from the White House. I support President Trump's commitment to secure our borders and enforce our immigration laws. It is crucial that we work to keep Americans safe and curb illegal immigration. This can be done with an integrated system of border security, which consists of increased border security personnel; a physical wall where feasible; and a virtual wall including sensors, airborne resources, surveillance assets and related logistics. I look forward to working with President Trump as we continue working to improve the safety and security of hardworking American families."
