I am here tonight to deliver a message
of unity and strength and it is a
message deeply delivered from my heart
we want all Americans to succeed but
that can't happen in an environment of
lawless chaos we must restore integrity
and the rule of law at our borders
it is not compassionate but reckless to
allow uncontrolled entry from places
where proper vetting cannot occur but to
accomplish our goals at home and abroad
we must restart the engine of the
American economy making it easier for
companies to do business in the United
States and much much harder for
companies to leave our country
protecting our workers also means
reforming our system of legal
immigration if we are guided by the
well-being of American citizens that I
believe Republicans and Democrats can
work together to achieve an outcome that
has eluded our country for decades the
time has come for a new program of
national rebuilding this effort will be
guided by two core principles by
American and higher American tonight I
am also calling on this Congress to
repeal and replace Obamacare Obamacare
is collapsing and we must act decisively
to protect all Americans we are blessed
to be joined tonight by Corrine Owens
the widow of US Navy special operator
senior Chief William Ryan Owens Brian's
legacy is etched into eternity thank you
but we know that America is better off
when there is less conflict not more we
must learn from the mistakes of the past
America is willing to find new friends
and to forge new partnerships where
shared interests align we want harmony
and stability not war and conflict the
time for small thinking is over the time
for trivial fights is behind us we just
need the courage to share the dreams
that fill our hearts the bravery to
express the hopes that sear our souls
and the confidence to turn those hopes
and those dreams into action
