we really appreciate it.
acting attorney general matt
whitaker.
i will start by highlighting
the fact that you stayed in
washington, d.c. over the
holidays giving up christmas
with your family, new year's
with your family.
trying to bring an end to the
shutdown and security to our
southern border.
well members of congress went on
vacation and ignore the problem,
you have demonstrated your
dedication to delivering on this
critical issue.
for our country and for the
american people.
congress has to act.
they have to fund the wall.
it is undeniable that a border
wall improves the security of
our southern border.
a wall would reduce the flow of
and criminals
across our border.
like you highlighted the brave
legal immigrant
murdered by an illegal immigrant
in california.
it would reduce the incentives
for individuals who attempt to
and restorelly
integrity to our system.
also we need congress to close
the loopholes in our immigration
laws.
not only do the loopholes
tostrate dhs's...
