YUMA, AZ — As the nation's eyes return to the southern border ahead of an expected policy announcement from President Joe Biden on Tuesday, Arizona's lawmakers traveled to Yuma to see the border with their own eyes.
In Arizona - and soon, nationally - we'll see competing plans on how to address record-high immigration via the southern border. Republicans said their plan would give local law enforcement the ability to take care of their own communities in what they perceived as an absence of federal leadership. Lawmakers hope to send HCR 2060 to voters directly in the form of a November ballot referral. A final vote necessary to make the ballot is expected to take place in the Arizona House, which has a Republican majority that already passed a version of the proposal, on Tuesday.
"Nothing about the current policies of this administration is humane," Wilmot said, referring to the Biden administration.
