Border walls work, and Democrats know it

The clock is ticking, and Congress must quickly develop comprehensive border security legislation. America is waiting. But first, Democrats must realize something simple — something the American people already understand: We need a wall.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dismisses a border wall as “immoral.” This claim is brazenly false.

Consider Turkey, Hungary and Israel, which experienced dramatic reductions in illegal crossings since building walls. Israel’s illegal crossings, because of the wall and other policies, dropped by 99 percent!

In the parts of America where walls have already been built, they have been incredibly successful. In San Diego, illegal crossings plummeted 95 percent after building a wall and instituting several other personnel and technology changes.

President Barack Obama’s own Border Patrol chief, Mark Morgan, recently said: “I cannot think of a legitimate argument why anyone would not support the wall as part of a multilayered border security issue.”
