These are common-sense reforms that will keep our country safe and keep our communities safe.

The Public Record
This piece of legislation provides many of the tools that could help us regain control of our borders.
The number of new asylum filings has tripled between fiscal year 2014 and fiscal year 2017.
Building a physical wall along key parts of the Southwest Border is absolutely necessary.
So, I mean, our system is being used for people to be able to just drive a Mack truck through the loopholes.
The first is to raise the standard of the initial asylum interview that happens at the border which is so low that nearly everybody can make it through.
The time has come to build a policy wall, alongside the physical wall, to force those seeking to immigrate to the United States to do it the right way, the legal way.
I along with Chairman Goodlatte and Chairwoman McSally have proposed a robust border security and immigration enforcement bill.
