Issue Position: Stop Illegal Immigration and Secure Our Borders

Issue Position

The federal government hasn't just failed to secure our borders under the Obama Administration, they have actively encouraged more illegal immigration by not enforcing existing laws and enacting unconstitutional policies to prevent deportation and the prosecution of illegal immigrants accused of crimes. The lack of political courage to tackle this issue is shameful for such a great nation.

I will use every resource and tool necessary, including the deployment of our military, to secure the border. I will ensure that all of our laws are enforced and put an end to Sanctuary Cities. And I will strongly support Kate's Law to enforce mandatory minimum jail time for illegal immigrants who come back to America after being deported. You break our laws; you go to prison. Finally, I will cut off tax payer ­funded services that incentivize the very behavior our immigration laws are trying to prevent.
