That is blatantly false.
"Now, as for what to do about illegal immigration, we should follow the repeal of the anchor baby provisions with a five-point program to create a smart and humane plan to get illegal immigration under control. It starts with securing our borders. Look, if a nation can't protect its own borders, it ceases to be a country. We're not just some landmass that anyone who wants to can trample on at will. I believe America is an exceptional nation worthy of protection. That tough on border enforcement. We can and should have a robust debate over whether that means continuing to build the physical border fence or utilizing "virtual fences" that use lasers as trip wires to monitor illegal border crossings."
