... At the same time, Kerlikowske pushed back against notions that lax border security is the cause of the problem and that building a wall there would solve it. Those illegally crossing the border, he said, are coming here to escape violence, reunite with relatives, find work and send money to families back home. Many are giving themselves up to U.S.Border Patrol officials when they reach the other side, he said, hoping they will be allowed to stay here for humanitarian reasons.

“It isn’t like we have large numbers of people that we are chasing and trying to apprehend,” he said. “They have been told by the smuggler, ‘Look for the person in a green uniform because you will be protected.’”

Kerlikowske didn’t mention Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump by name, but Trump has proposed building a wall along the southwest border at Mexico’s expense. Kerlikowske pointed out there are a lot of obstacles there, including the Rio Grande and swaths of private property.
