State Representative Cesar Blanco talks over construction of border wall

Published | Video Starts at 00:50

Rather than continuing to push for a border wall, Blanco believes it's more beneficial and useful to focus on other border issues. It's hateful, and I don't think we should spend any more dollars. We should be spending more dollars on things that work, shoring up our ports of entry, creating technologies, making sure that the commerce is coming securely and safely, fast, and making sure that we're providing technologies along the border and making sure that our country is safe. (00:50–01:09)
