Nobody builds like Trump’?” said former Trump adviser Sam Nunberg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The advisers wanted to ensure that every time he gave one of his wide-ranging, largely unscripted speeches, Trump would hit the theme of being tough on immigration. “Build the wall” — like “Make America Great Again” — was easy to remember and would fit well in the “Trump variety show,” as Nunberg described Trump’s rally speeches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was fun. It was cool. It was novel,” said Nunberg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunberg wants to be clear: Trump rejected plenty of their ideas. But he went all-in on the wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August 2014, Trump \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/496756082489171968\">sent his first tweet\u003c/a> about building a wall.

The wall would be “massive,” and the funding would come, indirectly, from Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The border is wide open for cartels & terrorists.

Trump (@realDonaldTrump) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/582645393227419648?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 30, 2015\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Trump officially launched his campaign in June 2015, with the wall as a centerpiece.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I’ll build them very inexpensively,” Trump said in the gilded Trump Tower in New York. “I will build a great, great wall on our Southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It didn’t take long for crowds at his rallies to chant, “Build that wall, build that wall!” Sometimes he’d add a question about who was going to pay for it. And arenas full of supporters would respond: “Mexico!”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The building materials\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Early on, when Trump described the wall, he talked about concrete. He mocked those who said it would be hard or impractical. Here are some examples:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Dec. 2, 2015:\u003c/strong> At a rally in Virginia, a young boy asked him, “What are the walls going to be made out of?” Trump replied, “I’ll tell you what it’s going to be made of. It’s going to be made of hardened concrete, and it’s going to be made out of rebar and steel. And — you know, it’s so easy, that’s what I do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jan. 18, 2016:\u003c/strong> “They have no idea how to do it. Whereas with me it’s easy — that’s like easy. When you build buildings like I build buildings, believe me, walls are easy. No windows, no nothing — precast concrete going very high.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Aug. 11, 2016:\u003c/strong> “The politicians would come up to me, and they’d say, ‘You know, Donald, you can’t build the wall.’ I said, ‘You have to be kidding. You have to be kidding. Concrete plank, you have to be kidding. Precast, precast, right? Boom. Bing. Done. Keep going.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>After Trump became president, though, a dose of reality met his concrete wall. Trump’s description of the material started to change. He began referencing a barrier made of steel, rather than concrete. In part, he argued, so that border agents could see through the barrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the things that’s come up pretty strongly is we want to have vision through the wall, because you want to see what’s on the other side of the wall,” Trump said in an interview on Fox News on Nov. 2, 2017. “You know, you think we’re going to build a nice, simple concrete wall, but it’s not that simple.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A series of tall, steel bollards (posts) is technically more like a fence than a wall. Still, Trump kept calling it a wall and kept leading chants at his rallies all through 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, with Democrats refusing to fund the president’s wall, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1075197395892404231\">he’s insisting\u003c/a>: “We are not building a Concrete Wall, we are building artistically designed steel slats.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Democrats, are saying loud and clear that they do not want to build a Concrete Wall – but we are not building a Concrete Wall, we are building artistically designed steel slats, so that you can easily see through it….\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Donald J.

Now the government is partially shut down with Trump refusing to sign legislation to reopen it until Congress provides funding to build the wall (or steel slat barrier).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, I never said this. And I never meant they are going to write out a check. I said they’re going to pay for it.

And I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It didn’t take long for crowds at his rallies to chant, “Build that wall, build that wall!” Sometimes he’d add a question about who was going to pay for it. And arenas full of supporters would respond: “Mexico!”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The building materials\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Early on, when Trump described the wall, he talked about concrete. He mocked those who said it would be hard or impractical. Here are some examples:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Dec. 2, 2015:\u003c/strong> At a rally in Virginia, a young boy asked him, “What are the walls going to be made out of?” Trump replied, “I’ll tell you what it’s going to be made of. It’s going to be made of hardened concrete, and it’s going to be made out of rebar and steel. And — you know, it’s so easy, that’s what I do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jan. 18, 2016:\u003c/strong> “They have no idea how to do it. Whereas with me it’s easy — that’s like easy.

No windows, no nothing — precast concrete going very high.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Aug. 11, 2016:\u003c/strong> “The politicians would come up to me, and they’d say, ‘You know, Donald, you can’t build the wall.’ I said, ‘You have to be kidding. You have to be kidding. Concrete plank, you have to be kidding. Precast, precast, right? Boom. Bing. Done. Keep going.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>After Trump became president, though, a dose of reality met his concrete wall. Trump’s description of the material started to change. He began referencing a barrier made of steel, rather than concrete. In part, he argued, so that border agents could see through the barrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the things that’s come up pretty strongly is we want to have vision through the wall, because you want to see what’s on the other side of the wall,” Trump said in an interview on Fox News on Nov. 2, 2017. “You know, you think we’re going to build a nice, simple concrete wall, but it’s not that simple.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A series of tall, steel bollards (posts) is technically more like a fence than a wall. Still, Trump kept calling it a wall and kept leading chants at his rallies all through 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, with Democrats refusing to fund the president’s wall, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1075197395892404231\">he’s insisting\u003c/a>: “We are not building a Concrete Wall, we are building artistically designed steel slats.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Democrats, are saying loud and clear that they do not want to build a Concrete Wall – but we are not building a Concrete Wall, we are building artistically designed steel slats, so that you can easily see through it….\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Donald J.

Make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to ensure that $24 billion continues to flow into their country year after year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Pelosi's news conference, she suggested that Wednesday's White House meeting with Hill leaders was never about a serious negotiation. \"I think the meeting was a setup so he could walk out,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the president keeps changing his demands: \"I don't even know if the president wants the wall,\" Pelosi said. \"I said to him 'You are moving the goal posts so many times they are out of the stadium.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic congressional leaders have refused to go along with Trump's demand for border wall funding, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has refused to take up Democratic measures to fund government agencies that have run out of appropriations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 800,000 federal workers have been furloughed or are working without paychecks because of the standoff. Many will be missing their first paychecks on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI Agents Association, whose members are among those working without pay, sent a petition to the White House and congressional leaders warning of the effects of the shutdown on agents and their work.

But she said gangs threatened her for refusing to pay a \"war tax,\" a local form of extortion. She fled with her husband and two of her children, now aged 6 and 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They've been living in Los Angeles for more than two years, and they're still awaiting a decision in their asylum case. By now, they've settled into a routine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At six o'clock, we get up and get ready,\" Lizeth said. They need to be out the door by 7:20 a.m., so Lizeth can get to work by 8:30 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took Lizeth a year and a half to get her work permit. Her husband just received his. Like other asylum-seekers, they started off renting rooms in houses crammed with other occupants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, they can afford the $1,000 rent for their own studio apartment in the San Fernando Valley. It doesn't offer much privacy, Lizeth said. A simple room divider separates the living room from the bedroom. But their home is decked out with festive Christmas decorations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's 1,000 percent better,\" than anything she expected to have, Lizeth said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have dreams. I have goals. And I know I can achieve them. In my country, you have goals. You have hope. But everything remains a dream,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years may sound like a long time to wait for an asylum decision. But Lizeth's attorney Jenna Gilbert said these days \"two years is on the shorter end.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As years go by, Gilbert worries that judges may start to think her clients no longer have a credible fear of gang members in their home country. She says a claim that may have been strong a few years ago, \"maybe today isn't so strong.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Things are changing so rapidly, there's really no way to provide your clients with any kind of comfort, any kind of understanding of what the road ahead might look like,\" Gilbert said.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'I have dreams. I have goals. And I know I can achieve them. In my country, you have goals. You have hope. But everything remains a dream.'\u003ccite>Lizeth, immigrant from Honduras living in L.A.\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>At this point, Gilbert is hoping that a decision in Lizeth's case is delayed until 2020 or later, when there could be a new president in the White House with more favorable asylum policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Now that we're kind of at the halfway point, I'm hoping that cases slow down as much as possible until we can see the end of this administration,\" Gilbert said. \"Hopefully.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Lizeth and her family grow more comfortable in California every day. They've put a down payment on a car. Their kids are picking up English in school. Lizeth worries what would happen if they were deported back to Honduras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They think those of us coming from the United States are carrying a lot of money,\" she said. \"There are many cases of people who went back to Honduras and didn't live more than a month.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now, Lizeth said, the future is bright. In Honduras, holidays were hard. She could afford to give her kids gifts or a nice meal, but never both. This year, in the U.S., she was able to make a big Christmas dinner and give her children new clothes and shoes. A nice Christmas, she said, like she hadn't had in a long time.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

But she said gangs threatened her for refusing to pay a \"war tax,\" a local form of extortion. She fled with her husband and two of her children, now aged 6 and 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They've been living in Los Angeles for more than two years, and they're still awaiting a decision in their asylum case. By now, they've settled into a routine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At six o'clock, we get up and get ready,\" Lizeth said. They need to be out the door by 7:20 a.m., so Lizeth can get to work by 8:30 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took Lizeth a year and a half to get her work permit. Her husband just received his. Like other asylum-seekers, they started off renting rooms in houses crammed with other occupants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, they can afford the $1,000 rent for their own studio apartment in the San Fernando Valley. It doesn't offer much privacy, Lizeth said. A simple room divider separates the living room from the bedroom. But their home is decked out with festive Christmas decorations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's 1,000 percent better,\" than anything she expected to have, Lizeth said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have dreams. I have goals. And I know I can achieve them. In my country, you have goals. You have hope. But everything remains a dream,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years may sound like a long time to wait for an asylum decision. But Lizeth's attorney Jenna Gilbert said these days \"two years is on the shorter end.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As years go by, Gilbert worries that judges may start to think her clients no longer have a credible fear of gang members in their home country. She says a claim that may have been strong a few years ago, \"maybe today isn't so strong.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Things are changing so rapidly, there's really no way to provide your clients with any kind of comfort, any kind of understanding of what the road ahead might look like,\" Gilbert said.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'I have dreams. I have goals. And I know I can achieve them. In my country, you have goals. You have hope. But everything remains a dream.'\u003ccite>Lizeth, immigrant from Honduras living in L.A.\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>At this point, Gilbert is hoping that a decision in Lizeth's case is delayed until 2020 or later, when there could be a new president in the White House with more favorable asylum policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Now that we're kind of at the halfway point, I'm hoping that cases slow down as much as possible until we can see the end of this administration,\" Gilbert said. \"Hopefully.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Lizeth and her family grow more comfortable in California every day. They've put a down payment on a car. Their kids are picking up English in school. Lizeth worries what would happen if they were deported back to Honduras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They think those of us coming from the United States are carrying a lot of money,\" she said. \"There are many cases of people who went back to Honduras and didn't live more than a month.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now, Lizeth said, the future is bright. In Honduras, holidays were hard. She could afford to give her kids gifts or a nice meal, but never both. This year, in the U.S., she was able to make a big Christmas dinner and give her children new clothes and shoes. A nice Christmas, she said, like she hadn't had in a long time.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>President Trump used his first prime-time address from the Oval Office to make the case for his controversial border wall. The president's demand for $5.7 billion in wall funding — and Democrats' opposition — has led to a partial shutdown of the federal government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here we check some of the arguments made by the president and top Democrats in their response.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Trump's Speech\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 1: Humanitarian and security crisis\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"There is a growing humanitarian and security crisis at our Southern border.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>Illegal border crossings in the most recent fiscal year (ending in September 2018) were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/sw-border-migration\">actually lower than either 2016 or 2014\u003c/a> and much lower than at their peak around 2000. The number of unauthorized border-crossers is also dwarfed by the number of people who overstay their visas. But there has been a spike in crossings in the past few months, topping 60,000 in both October and November. And while illegal crossings are still well below the levels of a generation ago, the makeup of the traffic has changed. There are now many more children and families from Central America, who present different challenges than single adults from Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the Central American migrants are seeking asylum, citing a fear of violence or persecution back home. While the majority of these asylum claims are ultimately rejected, assessing them can take months or years. In the past, asylum-seekers were typically released into the U.S. during this period, a practice the Trump administration criticizes as \"catch and release.\" The administration wants to detain migrants while their asylum claims are adjudicated. This has led to overcrowded detention centers. And under a \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/06/22/622678753/the-history-of-the-flores-settlement-and-its-effects-on-immigration\">court order\u003c/a>, young migrants generally cannot be detained for more than about 20 days. (The administration tried to get around that last year with its ill-fated and short-lived family separation policy, to allow indefinite detention of adults while children were turned over to the Health and Human Services Department or resettled with family members.) Importantly, most asylum-seekers turn themselves in to U.S. authorities, which they could do with or without a border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 2: Driving down jobs and wages\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"All Americans are hurt by uncontrolled illegal migration. It strains public resources and drives down jobs and wages.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The effect of illegal immigration on wages has been studied extensively, and conclusions vary quite a bit. Because of the underground nature of the problem, hard evidence can be hard to come by. Some evidence exists that because illegal immigrants tend to be low-skilled, they compete with native-born workers and can lower wages for those at the bottom of the income scale. But they can also reduce the cost of production in some industries, which can mean lower prices for Americans as a whole. Indeed, many employers complain that in today's tight labor market, the shortage of immigrant labor is driving up their costs. As for the president's claim that illegal immigrants drain public resources, many studies have concluded that while illegal immigrants may drive up the cost of government services in some places, they also make up for it by paying taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 3: ICE arrests\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"In the last two years, ICE officers made 266,000 arrests of aliens with criminal records including those charged [with] or convicted of 100,000 assaults, 30,000 sex crimes and 4,000 violent killings. Over the years, thousands of Americans have been brutally killed by those who illegally entered our country.\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The president is right about the total number of arrests of immigrants with criminal records that ICE has arrested over the past two years. But that number alone is misleading, because many of those of immigrants have very likely committed immigration-related offenses rather than violent crimes as the president is suggesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has frequently pointed to sympathetic crime victims to justify his crackdown on illegal immigration. But experts say the president's rhetoric overstates\u003ca href=\"https://www.cato.org/blog/white-houses-misleading-error-ridden-narrative-immigrants-crime\"> the threat posed by immigrants\u003c/a>, who tend to commit crime at lower rates than people who are born in the United States — including murder and other violent crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 4: Illegal drugs\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"Our Southern border is a pipeline for vast quantities of illegal drugs. ... My administration has presented Congress with a detailed proposal to secure the border and stop the criminal gangs, drug smugglers and human traffickers. It's a tremendous problem.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>According to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.dea.gov/sites/default/files/2018-11/DIR-032-18%202018%20NDTA%20final%20low%20resolution.pdf#page=31\">Drug Enforcement Administration\u003c/a>, most illegal drugs imported to the U.S. from Mexico are smuggled through legal ports of entry. Only a small fraction comes through parts of the border that would be covered by a wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 5: Wall paid for by Mexico\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"The wall will also be paid for, indirectly, by the great new trade deal we have made with Mexico.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president is referring to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, which was signed by the leaders of the three countries on Nov. 30, 2018. In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly claimed that the new pact would usher in huge economic benefits, essentially making up for the cost of the wall. The problem with that is twofold: First, the agreement has to be approved by Congress, and that's not a sure thing, so presumptions about how much money it will bring in are premature. Second, many economists say the new agreement is at best a modest reworking of the North American Free Trade Agreement and are skeptical about its economic benefits. Typical was Phil Levy of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/phillevy/2018/12/18/can-the-new-nafta-pay-for-trumps-wall/#16b0b7c5ee10\">who wrote that\u003c/a> \"there is very little in the USMCA to suggest it will create an economic growth spurt in the United States.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 6: $5.7 billion request\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"Law enforcement professionals have requested $5.7 billion for a physical barrier. At the request of Democrats it will be a steel barrier rather than a concrete wall. This barrier is absolutely critical to border security.\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The administration's \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/congress-must-do-more-to-address-the-border-crisis/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=wh\">latest request\u003c/a> — presented to lawmakers over the weekend — seeks $5.7 billion for 234 miles of \"new physical barrier,\" which works out to about $24 million per mile. That's a shift from December, when Homeland Security said it wanted $5.7 billion to secure 215 miles of border but only 100 miles of that was expected to be a new barrier. The rest would go to restoring existing walls and fences. The switch from concrete to steel was not made at the request of Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the administration is seeking hundreds of millions of dollars for additional border guards, immigration judges, detention beds and \"to ensure the well-being of those taken into custody.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Democrats' Response\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim: Democrats and the president want border security\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer: \"Make no mistake. Democrats and the president both want stronger border security. However, we sharply disagree with the president about the most effective way to do it.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi condemned the president's proposed border wall as costly, ineffective and immoral. \"We're not doing a wall,\" Pelosi said. \"A wall is an immorality between countries.\" Though, as the president noted, congressional Democrats including Schumer have at times \u003ca href=\"https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2017/apr/23/mick-mulvaney/fact-check-did-top-democrats-vote-border-wall-2006/\">supported border barriers in the past\u003c/a>. Nearly 700 miles of wall and fencing \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/02/05/us/border-wall.html\">have already been built\u003c/a> along the U.S. border with Mexico since 2006. Some have argued that where walls make sense, they have already been built and where they haven't been built, they don't make sense. Each party is seeking to blame the other for the partial government shutdown. According to a new \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown-poll/a-growing-number-of-americans-blame-trump-for-shutdown-reuters-ipsos-poll-idUSKCN1P223U\">Reuters/Ipsos Poll\u003c/a>, 51 percent blame the president, an increase of 4 points from a similar poll just before Christmas. The same poll found only about about 4 in 10 Americans support the idea of additional fencing along the border, and support has fallen since 2015. Among Republicans, however, support for the wall is stronger, with 77 percent supporting additional fencing and 54 percent approving of a shutdown as a means to that end. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

And while illegal crossings are still well below the levels of a generation ago, the makeup of the traffic has changed. There are now many more children and families from Central America, who present different challenges than single adults from Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While the majority of these asylum claims are ultimately rejected, assessing them can take months or years. In the past, asylum-seekers were typically released into the U.S. during this period, a practice the Trump administration criticizes as \"catch and release.\" The administration wants to detain migrants while their asylum claims are adjudicated. This has led to overcrowded detention centers. And under a \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/06/22/622678753/the-history-of-the-flores-settlement-and-its-effects-on-immigration\">court order\u003c/a>, young migrants generally cannot be detained for more than about 20 days. (The administration tried to get around that last year with its ill-fated and short-lived family separation policy, to allow indefinite detention of adults while children were turned over to the Health and Human Services Department or resettled with family members.) Importantly, most asylum-seekers turn themselves in to U.S. authorities, which they could do with or without a border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 2: Driving down jobs and wages\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"All Americans are hurt by uncontrolled illegal migration. It strains public resources and drives down jobs and wages.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The effect of illegal immigration on wages has been studied extensively, and conclusions vary quite a bit. Because of the underground nature of the problem, hard evidence can be hard to come by. Some evidence exists that because illegal immigrants tend to be low-skilled, they compete with native-born workers and can lower wages for those at the bottom of the income scale. But they can also reduce the cost of production in some industries, which can mean lower prices for Americans as a whole. Indeed, many employers complain that in today's tight labor market, the shortage of immigrant labor is driving up their costs. As for the president's claim that illegal immigrants drain public resources, many studies have concluded that while illegal immigrants may drive up the cost of government services in some places, they also make up for it by paying taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 3: ICE arrests\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"In the last two years, ICE officers made 266,000 arrests of aliens with criminal records including those charged [with] or convicted of 100,000 assaults, 30,000 sex crimes and 4,000 violent killings. Over the years, thousands of Americans have been brutally killed by those who illegally entered our country.\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The president is right about the total number of arrests of immigrants with criminal records that ICE has arrested over the past two years. But that number alone is misleading, because many of those of immigrants have very likely committed immigration-related offenses rather than violent crimes as the president is suggesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has frequently pointed to sympathetic crime victims to justify his crackdown on illegal immigration. But experts say the president's rhetoric overstates\u003ca href=\"https://www.cato.org/blog/white-houses-misleading-error-ridden-narrative-immigrants-crime\"> the threat posed by immigrants\u003c/a>, who tend to commit crime at lower rates than people who are born in the United States — including murder and other violent crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 4: Illegal drugs\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"Our Southern border is a pipeline for vast quantities of illegal drugs. ... My administration has presented Congress with a detailed proposal to secure the border and stop the criminal gangs, drug smugglers and human traffickers. It's a tremendous problem.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>According to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.dea.gov/sites/default/files/2018-11/DIR-032-18%202018%20NDTA%20final%20low%20resolution.pdf#page=31\">Drug Enforcement Administration\u003c/a>, most illegal drugs imported to the U.S. from Mexico are smuggled through legal ports of entry. Only a small fraction comes through parts of the border that would be covered by a wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 5: Wall paid for by Mexico\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"The wall will also be paid for, indirectly, by the great new trade deal we have made with Mexico.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president is referring to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, which was signed by the leaders of the three countries on Nov. 30, 2018. In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly claimed that the new pact would usher in huge economic benefits, essentially making up for the cost of the wall. The problem with that is twofold: First, the agreement has to be approved by Congress, and that's not a sure thing, so presumptions about how much money it will bring in are premature. Second, many economists say the new agreement is at best a modest reworking of the North American Free Trade Agreement and are skeptical about its economic benefits. Typical was Phil Levy of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/phillevy/2018/12/18/can-the-new-nafta-pay-for-trumps-wall/#16b0b7c5ee10\">who wrote that\u003c/a> \"there is very little in the USMCA to suggest it will create an economic growth spurt in the United States.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim 6: $5.7 billion request\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"Law enforcement professionals have requested $5.7 billion for a physical barrier. At the request of Democrats it will be a steel barrier rather than a concrete wall. This barrier is absolutely critical to border security.\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fact check: \u003c/strong>The administration's \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/congress-must-do-more-to-address-the-border-crisis/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=wh\">latest request\u003c/a> — presented to lawmakers over the weekend — seeks $5.7 billion for 234 miles of \"new physical barrier,\" which works out to about $24 million per mile. That's a shift from December, when Homeland Security said it wanted $5.7 billion to secure 215 miles of border but only 100 miles of that was expected to be a new barrier. The rest would go to restoring existing walls and fences. The switch from concrete to steel was not made at the request of Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the administration is seeking hundreds of millions of dollars for additional border guards, immigration judges, detention beds and \"to ensure the well-being of those taken into custody.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Democrats' Response\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Claim: Democrats and the president want border security\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer: \"Make no mistake.

Some have argued that where walls make sense, they have already been built and where they haven't been built, they don't make sense. Each party is seeking to blame the other for the partial government shutdown. According to a new \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown-poll/a-growing-number-of-americans-blame-trump-for-shutdown-reuters-ipsos-poll-idUSKCN1P223U\">Reuters/Ipsos Poll\u003c/a>, 51 percent blame the president, an increase of 4 points from a similar poll just before Christmas. The same poll found only about about 4 in 10 Americans support the idea of additional fencing along the border, and support has fallen since 2015. Among Republicans, however, support for the wall is stronger, with 77 percent supporting additional fencing and 54 percent approving of a shutdown as a means to that end. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.
