"President Trump's decision to divert funds away from this center in order to pay for the border wall demonstrates his disregard for true national security threats and his fixation on a project that will solve no national security issues," he said. "If President Trump really wanted to solve migration issues, he would use smarter means, including those that would address the root causes."
