Resume border wall construction and expand enforcement

Blackburn supports resuming border wall construction and backs H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act. She says the bill would restart wall construction, hire more Border Patrol agents, end catch-and-release, protect unaccompanied minors from human trafficking, and uphold the rule of law. She calls for the Senate to hold a vote on the measure.
