Senator Marshall Pens Op-Ed in Fox News: Trump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill Will Keep Our Border the Most Secure It’s Been in History

Washington – U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas) penned an op-ed in Fox News, praising the progress made at the southern border because of President Trump’s policies, while calling on Congress to quickly pass the budget reconciliation package to provide more resources and support to those who protect our border, and preserve these hard-fought gains.

Highlights from Senator Marshall’s op-ed include: 

“Our country stands at a crossroads. Thanks to President Donald Trump’s and Homeland Security Secretary Noem’s leadership, our border is secure. We can either capitalize on this success and give law enforcement the resources it needs to keep it secure by passing the One Big, Beautiful Bill, or we can let the sacrifice of our men and women on the ground be in vain. 

“Considering the sheer size and prior dismantling of our southern border, what Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Coast Guard, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have managed to accomplish is remarkable. They cut daily encounters with illegal aliens by 95%, seized billions of dollars worth of cocaine and over 3,000 pounds of illicit fentanyl, and deported hundreds of gang members and terrorists.  

“On day one of President Trump’s second term, he deployed the U.S. military to help secure our border and protect our homeland. This includes Kansas’ own 1st Infantry Division, or “The Big Red One,” stationed at Fort Riley, which has been deployed to Fort Huachuca in Sierra Vista, Arizona. 

“Recently, I traveled to the southern border alongside law enforcement officers from Kansas – to personally thank these soldiers and all CBP officers for their service.

“What I saw was encouraging – morale is high and there is a clear hop in their step. However, resources are stretched thin, and their work is far from over.”
