400,000 people are pouring over our southern border, 30,000 a month at a time. They are wreaking havoc on our law enforcement, judicial system, hospitals and schools. The cost of dealing with this onslaught is estimated to be $1,500,000,000 a year and growing. An invasion of our country with 400,000 people every year, had they been armed, would have been a war.
In a $3,800,000,000,000 annual budget, spending $5,700,000,000 (.06%) to slow down the invasion seemed reasonable. If it takes the President using a Congressional law (1979 National Emergency Act) to get it done, so be it.
