News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

This is the year for the federal government to do something meaningful on immigration reform, and Democratic members of the state House of Representatives are urging them to get moving.

In letters sent Monday to all 10 members of Arizona's Congressional delegation, House Minority Leader Phil Lopes asks for "full attention" to federal laws that would secure the U.S.-Mexico border.

"Our state cannot wait any longer while Congress takes up other matters less urgent than the immigration problems along the delicate Arizona-Mexico border," Lopes, a Tucson Democrat, wrote.
