Lou Barletta: “Without enforcement, our laws mean nothing. I am very concerned that what we are doing is really just creating a paper…”

I think that President Trump's commitment to getting an infrastructure package passed this year provides the perfect avenue to do that, whether it is through a gas tax, which I have consistently advocated for, or another user fee.

It is time to secure our borders, enforce our Federal laws, and put America first.

I am always told we must have compassion for the person who breaks the law and comes to this country illegally, but rarely does someone speak up for the victims of this crime.

We as a Congress have failed by not enforcing the laws of our land and refusing to put the safety and well-being of the American people first.
