Border security Lauren Muscala Connor Heidbrink Muir Wilson YasminReshed Sarah Loschiavo Tiffani McCoy Luke Bachman Kyle Berth
Descriptions • Establish a goal for border security • Surveillance, fencing • Effectiveness Rate of 90% in one fiscal year • Funding--$5 billion by 2017 • Trigger to begin legalization (Registered Provisional Immigrant) • Only for high-risk areas • Lawful Permanent Resident trigger • 26 people on Commission • National Guard security
Controversy • What is the 90%? • Returning Immigrants after crossing the border • Expensive project • Net zero • Only have to discuss how they will achieve border security • 44% is secure, according to the Wall Street Journal • “Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), the Senate’s second-ranking Republican and a member of the immigration, refugees and border security subcommittee, has said that this immigration bill would actually undermine border security because ‘the border control will shift resources away, in a preannounced fashion, from most of the border sectors in order to reach the goals for only a few” (Heritage Action)
