Federal Gov't Ignoring Arizona Governor's Pleas to Secure Arizona Mexico Border

Tucson and Southern Arizona news from KVOA.com

The Feds are ignoring letter pleas from Arizona Governor Jan Brewer to do more to secure the Arizona Mexico border.

Brewer, said

"We just have been invaded so harshly by illegal immigrants and the drug cartels, I think it's important that we secure the borders. And I will continue to call on the federal government to step up and do the job that they are responsible for."

"It's pretty disturbing when you reach out to the federal government, the people that are there to protect us and protect our borders, {and} they don't even respond to the letters, they don't validate that they received it, they don't refuse that they're not going to come. It's just no comment. It's just a deaf ear."
