Interior check points would probably be counter-productive, but some tightening at the border is certainly needed.
What's really needed is interior enforcement against employers who exploit illegals, as eliminating the 'jobs magnet' would be the most efficient way of reducing the number of illegal alien 'economic refugees' in and coming to America. With those numbers substantially reduced, border enforcement becomes more practical.

Yes. The SAVE act has 100 members of congress signed on as sponsors. It was entered by a democrat no less and is garnering bipartisan support. If passed it could end the free pass employers have been getting. Hiring illegals would be a thing left to back door operations only.

The SAVE Act would ...
... require during Year 1 that all government agencies, government contractors, plus all businesses with more than 250 employees run all NEW hires through E-Verify.
... require during Year 2 that all businesses with 100 or more employees use E-Verify for new hires.
... require during Year 3 that all businesses with more than 20 employees use E-Verify for new hires.
... during Year 4 add businesses with fewer than 20 employees so that all businesses use E-Verify for new hires.
... also during Year 4 require all businesses to run all their previous hires through E-Verify.
The four-year phase-in is to give the government more room for massive expansion of its current system. It also allows the government to work out kinks before it is required for use by small businesses which often lack the personnel to easily deal with new procedures.
During the first three years, new illegal aliens and currently settled ones who lose their jobs will find fewer and fewer places where they can seek work.
But during those first three years, current illegal aliens who stayed in the same job would not be affected by the expanding use of E-Verify.
In the fourth year, however, all of those illegal workers would be run through E-Verify. If their Social Security number, name and a couple more details didn't match -- and they had no excuse -- they would lose their jobs.
LINKS ARE FOR the status of the fence which is being built and is working.

A wall would just be a feel-good measure. Electronic surveillance would be much more effective.
Recent legislation is the REAL ID Act.

The SAVE act is supposedly enforcement only but I would have to see to believe it would be enforced when other laws aren't.
Yes! Yes! Yes!

YES YES YES!!! With orders to open fire on those who do not halt immediately. Tired of giving people a free ride. If you want to be a citizen do it the legal way. Also get a job and pay taxes.
