Last month, I visited businesses on the U.S.-Mexico border in both Texas and New Mexico and spoke with businessmen, lawyers, officials, politicians and community leaders about the migrant problem. I went over to Juarez and spent time in El Paso and Santa Teresa and went through official checkpoints to both enter Mexico as well as return to the United States.

Let me begin with a conclusion that may be shocking to some: The border is secure, at least in one respect. I attended a livestock auction and was able to watch how cattle cross the border.
