Arizona legislators are hoping to work with Governor Doug Ducey on closing the gaps in the wall along the Arizona-Mexico border. The legislators let the governor know of their desire to collaborate in a letter sent on Friday.
Reps. Shawnna Bolick, Becky Nutt, Tim Dunn, Walt Blackman, Brenda Barton, John Kavanaugh, Mark Finchem, Joseph Chaplik, Beverly Pingerelli, Leo Biasiucci, Judy Burgess, Frank Carroll, Quang Nguyen, John Fillmore, Jacqueline Parker, and Steve Kaiser signed the letter calling for “a concrete plan to further allocate resources to complete portions of the Border wall and ensure Border Strike Force is fully funded.”
“We support trade relations with Mexico, but we do not want transnational crime rings bringing further ruin into our state. It is past time to plug the gaping holes on state land that buttress Mexico allowing traffickers to invade our state.”
