President Trump Pledges to Build Border Wall

President Trump calls on Congress to compromise and work together to strengthen border security. Pledging to build a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico, the president says his administration has submitted a proposal that provides humanitarian aid, more law enforcement, drug detection at ports of entry, and a barrier or wall in places where it is needed. Reminding lawmakers that they had voted for similar legislation in the past, the president says, "The proper wall never got built. I will get it built." close
