I mean, what should the Trump administration do on that front? And I'm curious how involved you personally expect to be on any related border security legislation. I started in the last Congress, that was the 118th Congress, and right away began working on HR2, which was the Secure the Border Act. I sat at the table with then Speaker McCarthy to tell him about what really mattered along the border. I have a very close relationship to the Border Patrol union. (02:41–02:51)
