Lou Barletta: “Sure. We know that those wishing to do us harm have manipulated our immigration systems in the past to enter and remain…”

I have been greatly disappointed by President Trump's proposed cuts to these vital programs, but remain committed to supporting much-needed homeland security grants to communities across this country.

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.

I am encouraged that President Trump has put a priority on enforcement and that the American people finally have a partner in the White House with their best interests at heart.
