Congresswoman Aumua Amata maintans her support of President Trump’s insistence on improving border protection for the US.

Last Friday after signing a funding measure to avert another federal government shutdown, Trump issued a national emergency declaration authorizing millions of dollars in federal funding to be directed to building the wall.

Sixteen states have filed legal challenges over the emergency declaration.

Congresswoman Aumua says like other countries the US must also protect its borders.

She said on the Samoa Sunrise Show that the southern border is where drugs are being smuggled into the US.
