Eric Wargotz Praises Passage Of Border Bill As Good First Step

Wargotz supports increased action to Secure Our Borders

Annapolis - Today, Eric Wargotz M.D., a candidate for the United States Senate in Maryland, praised the passage of the "Border Bill" that provides $600 million in new funding to increase security along the border with Mexico. "We must secure our borders and this bill helps accomplish that." Wargotz said. The bill includes money for 1500 new border patrol agents, 2 unmanned drones, and military-style bases along the border.

"While this bill is a good first step, we have much more work to do to secure our borders." Wargotz added. "For thirty-four years Senator Mikulski has failed to secure our borders. It is time for new leadership."

Wargotz supports increasing the number of border patrol agents, expanding the use of technology to assist the border patrol, and building a fence to secure our borders.
