*Mexico must pay for a wall along US-Mexico border. Until they do, United States will enact the following policy measures:
**Impound all remittance payments derived from illegal wages
**Increase fees on all temporary visas issued to Mexican CEOs and diplomats (and if necessary cancel them)
**Increase fees on all border crossing cards – of which we issue about 1 million to Mexican nationals each year (a major source of visa overstays)
**Increase fees on all NAFTA worker visas from Mexico (another major source of overstays)
**Increase fees at ports of entry to the United States from Mexico (Tariffs and foreign aid cuts are also options)
