I know I'm a few days late on this....
One reason that the focus is on the US-Mexico border is because of the physical nature of the border in Texas. There are parts of the Rio Grande River that is ankle deep so people can easily cross it.
I think the issue of immigration comes down to taxation. If there was a way to tax illegal immigrants then the immigration issue would not be a problem.
