WASHINGTON (AP) —Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said that "everything is on the table" with border security as she toured a border fence in California.
Nielsen's comments and during a visit Friday to Southern California, where she toured the first completed section of President Donald Trump's 30-foot border wall in the El Centro Sector.
Trump is taking new actions at the U.S.-Mexico border ahead of midterm elections as a migrant caravan from Central America has been slowly making its way through Mexico. The action is inflaming tensions over immigration.

The Pentagon is preparing to send active duty troops to aid the Border Patrol.
Nielsen was asked about reports that Trump is weighing a possible ban on certain people entering the country or sealing the border. She said the administration is looking at every legal option it has to make sure those who do not have a legal right to come to this country do not come in.
