How about the 2013 immigration bill?
It would have doubled the size of the border patrol. Increased spending on detection through motion, thermal, drones, etc. Allowed for direct hiring from the military. Replaced all old fencing and double and triple layer it whee needed.
It also set up a path of citizenship for the illegal immigrants already in the country. They would have been able to get a visa to stay in the country only if there are no records of them ever committing a crime in the US or their native country. They would have to hold the visa for 7 years before beginning the path to citizenship, any crimes committed during that time would have their visa revoked. There would be a charge for the visa to pay for the processing.
So the border would have been secured. It would have allowed groups like ICE to put all of their attention toward criminals. It also updated how the US would allow for new immigration into the country.
It passed a Democrat controlled Senate, Obama requested the bill be sent to him to sign into law then Republicans voted against it in the House. They then ran on the issue of border security two years later.
Edit: I forgot to point out that this was all done based on a study from the Army Corp of Engineers. They gave Congress a guide on how to secure the border. The most important part I took from the study was that you don't build walls in a desert to slow people down, the desert itself does this. They are only needed in areas where there are easier gaps to pass between Mexico and the US.
