John Kelly: DHS Personnel on the Border Are ‘Motivated’ to the Jobs They Were Hired To Do

EXCERPT:

KELLY: "This is my second trip to the border since I’ve been secretary, first time with the Attorney General. The thing that struck me right away is the Department of Homeland security people who are on the border are motivated to do the job that they were hired to do, that they want to do. Very, very positive in the way that they approach their jobs. What really surprised me is their relationship with their counterparts on the Mexican side of the border, very positive. Another thing that has surprised me is the local law enforcement that I meet all the time when I come down to the border here, how positive they are and what we’re trying to accomplish on the border, and that is trying to keep out illegal movement of either contraband or people. Local mayors are just as supportive."
