What is it you would have Congress do? Re-affirm existing immigration law? . . .To start with, double the size of the Border Patrol. Provide them with resources to physically secure the borders.
Do you believe the Border Patrol has the manning and resources to do the job now?

Anything else you want them to do?

Our borders are vast.
It would take far more than "doubling the size of the Border Patrol" to make the slightest dent in the problem. If your goal is to stop terrorists from getting in, you will fail.
