Senator Kelly discusses border security and fixing broken immigration system

(KYMA, KECY) - Arizona Senator Mark Kelly spoke on the Senate floor with Republican and Democratic colleagues about the southern border crisis and the importance of fixing the broken immigration system.

“I’m here today because securing our border and fixing our broken immigration system is a priority for me and for the state of Arizona, which bears the brunt of Washington’s failure on this issue,” Kelly said during his remarks. 

“Because on this issue, more than any other, folks often retreat to their partisan corners rather than finding the common ground that we know exists. It’s what’s led the federal government to fail border states like Arizona for decades when it comes to border security. And it has led to a broken immigration system that doesn’t work for families, for Dreamers, for businesses small and large, or for our country as a whole,” Kelly continued.
