What it’s like making it as an immigrant in the United States is a lot…

Up to 12 million people in the United States are here through unlawful entry. Building a barrier to close off the border is not a cheap investment but the results will be priceless. An increased quality of life for the citizens of the U.S. will be granted if a fence is built on the border between Mexico and the United States.
