Identify the efforts employed by the Federal government to improve border security.

Border security is a multifaceted topic that has raised many questions as to the handling of undocumented immigrants, establishing amnesty, and designing fair immigrant policies and laws. Two agencies are primarily responsible for border security and immigrations—U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) initiated a number of changes to seal the border from terrorists, including better tracking of foreign visitors, airline passenger screening, and the implementation of smart passports. Also, a No-Fly List has been developed to prevent certain people from purchasing commercial airline tickets.
