Homan to Speak Before Arizona Legislature
Arizona Speaker of the House Steve Montenegro (R-29) has announced that Trump Administration "Border Czar" Tom Homan will address the State Legislature in a joint session on Tuesday.
The press release describes Homan's address as focusing on "Arizona's leading role in confronting the border crisis and advancing public safety—a top priority for the House Republican Majority."
Arizona is ground zero in the fight to secure our southern border and protect American communities. Tom Homan is a patriot who has dedicated his life to defending our nation's sovereignty and keeping Americans safe," said Speaker Montenegro, adding, "Now, as the Border Czar for President Trump's administration, he's leading the long-overdue federal effort to restore law and order. His firsthand experience and no-nonsense leadership are exactly what our members need as we advance our Majority Plan to promote public safety, preserve the American Dream, and protect the rights and liberties of every Arizonan."
Does Texas have a constitutional right to defy Supreme Court on protecting its border?
Arizona Republicans have indeed focused on securing the Grand Canyon State's border with Mexico, efforts which have ramped up after the Trump Administration assumed office in January.
