Sen. Ted Cruz: To secure our border, take these important and effective actions
Ted Cruz wants El Chapo to pay for the border wall
Reaction and analysis from Texas county attorney Rob Henneke on 'Fox & Friends First.'
Since last October, over 500,000 illegal immigrants have been apprehended at our southern border, many of them having traveled through Mexico from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala.
About 200,000 of those illegal immigrants were single adults, another 330,000 were part of family units, and over 56,000 of them were unaccompanied children.
In May alone, Customs and Border Protection apprehended over 144,000 people coming through the southern border. If that pace continues, we’re looking at nearly 2 million apprehensions in a single year. That is a staggering number of people for Texas and other border states to take in, and it’s depleting the resources of small communities.
