Sen. Ron Johnson: ‘This Is a Crisis; We Have a Completely Unsecured Border’

EXCERPT:

BASH: "I want to bring in the senator from Wisconsin Ron Johnson, who is chairman of the Homeland Security Committee. Senator, thank you so much for joining me today. I know you are working on legislation and I want to get to that in a moment, but first, I just want to ask about this order. Do you think that it’s going to help the crisis at the border?"
JOHNSON: "Well, Dana, well, first of all, I want to be able to really understand what the attorney general saying. The news report says thousands. You have seen my chart just since 2012, we had approaching 900,000 unaccompanied children and members of family units. I doubt this order will apply to those but 900,000 of those individuals, you know came into this country illegally, they were apprehended, they were processed and they've been dispersed all over America. And I was just down at the border in El Paso, and asking have we kept tracked? Do we know where these people are? And the basic answer is no, we really don't know where they are. So, this is a crisis. We have a completely unsecured border. We are basically being used by the human traffickers in their hundred million dollar enterprise here. And we are helping them out."
