Summary

South Dakota Dusty Johnson (R) has introduced legislation that aims to ensure that future administrations are forced to maintain, repair and secure the southern border wall. The FASTER Act requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to conduct surveys once every two years of defenses at the southern border, relating details of the current state of the barriers and marking any stretch that maybe need rebuilding. FOX's Ryan Schmelz speaks with South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson (R), author of the FASTER Bill, who says a secure southern border was promised to Americans and he shares his thoughts on 'the Epstein files'.
