Complete construction of a secure border wall and provide the resources needed to stop illegal crossings.

Evidence
My Priorities: "Finish the President Trump's Wall: Complete construction of a secure border wall and provide the resources needed to stop illegal crossings."
"Currently, CBP has approximately 100 miles of new border barrier in various stages of construction and planning," and the waiver covers approximately five more miles of new border wall in Texas.
Fine's office says he introduced a resolution that "urges Congress to take immediate action to secure the border and deport migrants who overstay their visas," and he said he would work with President Trump and colleagues in Congress to secure the border.
Assessments
Randy Fine took office on April 2, 2025, and his House issue page adopted this promise while highlighting immigration-related bills and cosponsorships, so there was clear same-term advocacy. There was also real same-term progress on the 'provide the resources' portion, because major federal border-security and wall funding moved during his term. But the promise was framed as completing a secure border wall and providing the resources needed to stop illegal crossings, and the wall itself was still under construction or in planning well into 2026 rather than completed. Fine also does not appear to have been the principal author or decisive driver of the enacted border-funding outcome. That supports partial credit, not full delivery.
The promised outcome was to complete construction of a secure border wall and provide resources needed to stop illegal crossings. The supplied CBP evidence shows border wall work remained in construction and planning in August 2025, so the wall was not completed. Fine did take congressional action related to border and immigration enforcement, including introducing a resolution urging stronger action, but that did not deliver the promised completed wall or stop illegal crossings.
