A Quote by Pete Buttigieg
I don't have a problem with enhanced border security, perhaps to include fencing. I think the mistake is believing that border security is as simple as just putting up a wall from sea to shining sea.

People think of border security in very different ways, but to me, it's very simple: border security is national security.

When it comes to immigration, I have actually put more money, under my administration, into border security than any other administration previously.

I love borders. August is the border between summer and autumn; it is the most beautiful month I know. Twilight is the border between day and night, and the shore is the border between sea and land.
