Tulsi Gabbard on Border Security and Immigration Reform

What your stand is on border security and immigration?

Tulsi Gabbard: I think border security and immigration reform is one of those issues where when we really start having the conversation. I think we realize we actually share a lot of the same concerns I think it’s a disservice to both the problem and those of us who are seeking solutions that in this kind of tweet driven soundbite driven political environment those of us who recognize we need border security are somehow criticized as being anti-immigrant and those who are fighting for a more humane immigration policy are sometimes criticized as being for open borders there are some advocating for open borders I disagree with that as a nation.

 

 

Tulsi Gabbard: “We need borders otherwise we don’t really have a country and so then the next question is so how do we accomplish that I disagree with President Trump’s plan of a wall from sea to shining sea because I think it just doesn’t make sense we’ve got to look at border security and what is the most cost effective way to be able to do that in some places that may mean a barrier of some sort in other places that wouldn’t make any sense at all again it’s just about figuring out how do we accomplish a mission what’s the best way to do that right alongside border security we need to also really bring about the kind of comprehensive immigration reform that’s been talked about for many years but has always fallen to the wayside because of partisan interests rather than seeing okay yeah there’s got to be some give-and-take along the way but this is too serious of a problem to allow it to remain broken it is affecting families in our country it’s affecting our economy and they’re there are a lot of things that would greatly benefit our country if we simply came together and actually addressed these issues.”

We need borders otherwise we don’t really have a country.
