Close asylum loopholes and add border enforcement

Van Duyne supports closing asylum loopholes, building border walls where Border Patrol needs them, and hiring more border agents to respond to surges of illegal immigration and intercept drug trafficking. She also supports cooperation between ICE and local law enforcement to apprehend and deport people in the country illegally who commit crimes.

Context: Wall construction is limited to locations where Border Patrol says walls are needed.

In their own words

we need to build walls where the border patrol needs them and hire more border agents
