Homeland Security Secretary Nielsen Visits New Border Wall In California
As a migrant caravan heads toward the U.S., Nielsen says her agency has asked for the military's help — which will include building vehicle barriers and pedestrian barriers.
"It's a wall," said Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, standing in the shadow of a newly built stretch of a 30-foot border wall in Calexico, Calif., which she said would help U.S. agents secure the border.
"Let me be clear: Walls work," Nielsen said. "That's not my opinion, it's not a tagline, it's not a political statement, it's a fact."
