Lou Barletta: “Forty percent of the people that are in the country illegally didn't cross a border; they came here on a visa, the visa…”

We have immigration laws for two reasons, to ensure the National security of the United States, and to protect American jobs.

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.

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

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.
