The Secure Fence Act of 2006’s goal is to help secure America’s borders to decrease illegal entry, drug trafficking, and security threats by building 700 miles (1,100 km) of physical barriers along the Mexico-United States border. Additionally, the law authorizes more vehicle barriers, checkpoints, and lighting as well as authorizes the Department of Homeland Security to increase the use of advanced technology like cameras, satellites, and unmanned aerial vehicles to reinforce infrastructure at the border. Congress approved $1.2 billion in a separate homeland security spending bill to bankroll the fence, though critics say this is $4.8 billion less than what’s likely needed to get it built.The final roll call shows both Barrack Obama and Hillary Clinton voted for the bill.
Inquiring minds are taking a flashback look at the Secure Fence Act of 2006, signed by president Bush.excellent point. did not then 2008 candidate for Prez Obama say he'd secure the borders, continuing Bush's initiative only to ignore it on purpose for 8 years? he did.The Secure Fence Act of 2006’s goal is to help secure America’s borders to decrease illegal entry, drug trafficking, and security threats by building 700 miles (1,100 km) of physical barriers along the Mexico-United States border.

excellent point. did not then 2008 candidate for Prez Obama say he'd secure the borders, continuing Bush's initiative only to ignore it on purpose for 8 years? he did.Show me the facts on Obama allowing millions to flood into this country. If your claim is correct, than millions must have left during his admin because there is research showing the number of illegals in the US have been relatively stable the last 8-10 years.

Yes, all evidence points to millions IN the US, but that has happened over multiple administrations, both GOP and Dems.
