Secure America Initiative
Our mission is to ensure the security and integrity of America's borders.
We educate the public and policymakers on comprehensive and effective border policies that safeguard our communities from illegal immigration, criminal activity, and potential national security threats. This can be accomplished while allowing for the free exchange of commerce, legal immigration and work visas.
We must enforce a secure border environment and uphold the rule of law. This includes stopping illegal entry, disrupting criminal networks and ending the influx of illegal drugs. We stand for a proactive approach to border security that goes beyond physical barriers. This includes enhancing resources for border patrol agencies, improving technological capabilities, and fostering cooperation between federal, state, and local entities. Our mission is driven by the necessity to protect the American people, ensure the safety of our nation and preserve the values of sovereignty and lawfulness.
