An internal Department of Homeland Security memo from June 2017 concluded that border walls are the most effective tool for stopping illegal immigration at the United States-Mexico border.
The memo recommended the construction of a border wall in every area examined and found it to be the most cost-effective option.
This contradicts President Joe Biden’s stance that border walls are a “waste of money.” (Trending: Kid Rock Rages Against ‘Woke’ Target)
Despite Biden canceling border wall construction, his administration has planned to build an additional wall in Starr County, Texas, due to waves of illegal immigration in the region.
“This is vindication to those who were disparaged by this administration for their support of physical barriers at the border,” IRLI Executive Director Dale Wilcox stated.
“A border wall system makes practical and financial sense,” Wilcox said.
During former President Donald Trump’s tenure, about 370 miles of border wall were built, and amidst record-setting illegal immigration levels under Biden, a Fox News poll revealed that four out of seven registered voters supported the DHS building additional border wall.
“Americans, who are justifiably concerned about border security, should be asking themselves why Joe Biden and [Secretary of Homeland Security] Alejandro Mayorkas are so eager to prevent the construction of physical barriers on the southern border,” IRLI’s Director of Investigations Matt O’Brien said.
“… [W]alls have repeatedly been shown to be the cheapest and most effectual way to protect both national security and public safety,” he added.
