    DeMaio Calls for U.S. to Complete Full Border Fence

    DeMaio Calls for U.S. to Complete Full Border Fence

    POSTED BY CHRIS JENNEWEIN ON OCTOBER 27, 2014

    Congressional candidate Carl DeMaio on Monday called for completion of a 1,500-mile fence along the Mexican border as part of a five-point initiative on border security.

    “From illegal immigration to terrorism and Ebola, the reasons for securing our nation’s border have never been more clear,” he said at a press conference at his campaign headquarters.


    The Republican contender for the 52nd District accused incumbent Scott Peters of being a “rubber stamp” for what DeMaio said was a failed policy of President Barack Obama.


    DeMaio’s five-point proposal includes:


    • Hiring more Border Patrol agents and expanding use of the National Guard along the border
    • Completing a 1,500-mile border fence, similar to a fence in parts of San Diego County
    • Using drones to achieve “100 percent monitoring and coverage of the entire border”
    • Stepping up sanctions against employers who hire undocumented workers
    • Giving the Border Patrol expanded authority to turn-back illegal entrants at the border


    He said that once these steps are taken, he would advocate expanding visa programs for foreign workers and other immigration reforms. “I believe that securing the border is a fundamental prerequisite to any discussion of immigration reform,” he said.


    Asked if a similar fence should be built along the Canadian border, he said the entire security situation must be assessed, but “let’s finish the job of securing the southwestern border.”


    Apprehensions of illegal entrants by the Border Patrol have increased over the past two years because of an influx of unaccompanied minors from Central America. However, total apprehensions are less than half the level of a decade ago, according to the Department of Homeland Security. The Border Patrol apprehended 421,000 people along the southwest border in the 2013 fiscal year and 480,000 in 2014.


    The 52nd District covers much of central San Diego County including Poway, Coronado and large portions of the City of San Diego.

    I like what he said at his Press Conference but look at this jumbled attempt to tell every side what they want to hear on his website....

    Immigration Reform
    America is a nation built by immigrants, and San Diego is a city that is proud of its immense diversity.
    Immigration exemplifies the dysfunction in Washington: our immigration system is broken, our border is not secure, and Washington politicians would rather have a political issue to argue about than a real solution to implement.
    It is time to stop the partisan bickering, and for Congress and the President to work together to enact a bipartisan solution.
    Carl DeMaio supports sensible immigration reform that secures our borders, protects taxpayers, keeps families together, treats immigrants fairly and with respect, provides an accountable, timely, and transparent process for individuals who follow the rules and comply with our laws to achieve their citizenship.

    "The fence, boss, the fence." Every time I hear somebody call for completing "the fence," I think about Tattoo calling for the boss to recognize that plane.

    The fence is a wondeful symbol. Calling for it to be completed is a wonderful way for politicians to be able to claim that they are protecting American interests. Unfortunately the border is too long to be completely sealed. But we can use Universal E-Verify to eliminate the jobs magnet which is responsible to the bulk of those illegals who sneak into our country.

    At the end of the day, Universal E-Verify is the one sure cure for stopping the flood of illegal aliens who are undercutting Americans for entry level jobs.

    E-verify is good but it does nothing to stop anyone who works under the table or starts their own business.

    It does nothing to stop the people who come here to live off of the welfare, food stamps, WIC, etc. that their anchor babies get them.

    It does nothing to stop the students who are here to get an education at taxpayer expense.
