Sen. John Cornyn R-TX: We don't need more walls between Texas and Mexico
Sen. John Cornyn: We don't need more walls between Texas and Mexico

Asked about the border wall -- a hot topic during the Republican presidential primary -- Cornyn said he didn't favor new fencing. (CBS 4 News)
Building more walls between the United States and Mexico will not boost border security, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn said Tuesday.
The Texas Republican toured the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge and visited Anzalduas Park during an all-day visit to the Rio Grande Valley.
Cornyn also met with Mission Mayor Norberto "Beto" Salinas, McAllen Mayor Jim Darling, Superintendent of Bridges Rigo Villarreal and Chief Patrol Agent Manuel Padilla, who heads the Rio Grande Valley Sector.
Cornyn brought Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-Louisiana, along for a firsthand look at trade and security issues.
Asked about the border wall -- a hot topic during the Republican presidential primary -- Cornyn said he didn't favor new fencing.
"It's more than just physical obstacles," Cornyn said. "It's people. It's the boots on the ground. And it's the technology.
"We had the opportunity to see the aerostats now that have been fairly recently deployed and see the great advantage that that gives to our Border Patrol and law enforcement authorities in terms of managing the border," Cornyn said.
During the visit, Cornyn said he wanted to emphasize that trade with Mexico is vital to the U.S. economy.
"When people talk about the border, so often I think they forget the advantages of our proximity to Mexico," Cornyn said. "Six million jobs in the U.S. depend on bi-national trade between the U.S. and Mexico."

. . . The Secure Fence Act of 2006 was passed by Congress and signed by President George W. Bush on October 26, 2006.
The government of Mexico and ministers of several Latin American countries have condemned the plans.[15] Rick Perry, governor of Texas, also expressed his opposition saying that instead of closing the border it should be opened more and through technology support legal and safe migration. . .

John Cornyn and his globalist attitude is part of the problem. Cornyn was elected to represent his constituents, not his donors. JMO

Cornyn is a globalist that supports open borders and the invasion of illegal aliens. It's time for him to go...
Never give up! Never surrender! Never compromise your values!*

Cornyn: No Border Wall Needed Between Texas and Mexico

Texas’ senior U.S. Senator says that building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border is not the solution to border security. Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) said during a tour of the border on Tuesday, “It’s more than just a physical obstacle.”
In a press conference following the river tour, Cornyn told reporters, “What we need is a virtual border.”
As reported by the local Fox News affiliate in the Valley, Cornyn was touring the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge near the Texas-Mexico border. Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) was also with him.
When he was on the border near Anzalduas Park near Mission, Texas, the Texas senator was asked about a border wall, an issue which has been at the center of the 2016 GOP presidential primary election.

The Republican was reported by Fox 2 to have answered, “It’s more than just a physical obstacle. It’s people. It’s the boots on the ground and it’s the technology.”
KURV 710 in the Valley also reported that Senator Cornyn said that in addition to technology and personnel, an “orderly immigration system” is the best answer to the problems along the border.
“When people talk about the border they often forget the advantages of our proximity to Mexico,” Cornyn told the media as reported by The Monitor. “Six million jobs in the United States depend on bi-national trade between the U.S. and Mexico.”
Senator Cassidy said that a strong border is dependent on the men and women who are working on the front lines, reported Fox 2. “Good people working on behalf of our country, sometimes on behalf of those who are not of our country but we are showing our country’s values as we work,” the Louisiana senator said. “Never forgetting that we have to secure our borders. Never forgetting that there are laws to be followed, but doing it the American way, and an American way that makes us proud.”
Cornyn was also accompanied on the tour by Mission, Texas Mayor Norberto “Beto” Salinas, McAllen Mayor Jim Darling, Hidalgo Mayor Martin Cepeda, and Chief Patrol Agent Manuel Padilla of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency, according to The Monitor.
“Sen. Cornyn is really a true friend of the Valley who understands our uniqueness and understands that the river behind us is not just the border. It’s the drinking water for almost 3.2 million people, its irrigation water for tens of thousands of acres of agriculture on both sides of the border. He understands that a safe border is not a closed border,” McAllen Mayor Jim Darling told the gathered reporters.
After touring the river area, the tour continued at the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge to learn about the impact of international trade on the Rio Grande Valley area, Fox 2 reported.
