DeSantis debuts sweeping border plan and vows to go beyond Trump: 'No excuses'

2024 Republican presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) debuted an extensive plan to regain control of the U.S.-Mexico border and vowed to go beyond anything that former President Donald Trump had done.

DeSantis announced a comprehensive strategy titled "No Excuses," comprised of four pillars: Stop the invasion, build the wall, hold cartels accountable, and work with states to enforce the law.

"What we're saying is, no excuses on this — get the job done. Make it happen. We want results. We don't want hollow rhetoric. We don't want empty promises," DeSantis said before roughly 150 attendees. "So when we go in on day one, we're going to marshal every bit of authority that we have. We'll work with Congress when we need to, we'll take executive action when we can. It will be a day one priority, and you're going to see a big change very, very quickly."
