Patrick Shanahan: Military won’t leave border until it's secure

Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan said the military would not pull troops tasked with putting up barriers and planning logistics from the U.S.-Mexico border.

"We're not going to leave until the border is secure," he said Saturday in McAllen, Texas, according to the Associated Press. “This isn't about identifying a problem. It's about fixing a problem more quickly."

Troops have been stationed there since October and are likely to remain there through September. They will not be there indefinitely, he said.
