Dear [RH]:
Thank you for contacting my office regarding the border between Arizona and Mexico. I share your concern about the problems associated with illegal immigration, as well as the prevalence of an unlawful drug trade associated lax border control.
I have the utmost respect for the loyal men and women who patrol and protect the border, but, in my opinion, unwavering delineation of the border is unnecessary and antagonistic to a country which is striving to overcome many of the obstacles which challenge a developing nation like Mexico. Mexico is currently Arizona's primary trading partner. Our strong economy depends on exports to Mexico. I applaud efforts underway in Congress to increase resources for the Immigration and Naturalization Service and United States Customs. I encourage the reinforcement of existing border control agencies by improving technology and employing additional agents. I believe that this is a better resolution to the challenges Arizona faces at the border, rather than strict border demarcation.
Again, thank you for contacting my office.
Sincerely,
JDH/j -END
BTW, Mexico is a hostile nation. Read this poll. Trading with Mexico = trading with ourselves (maquilas genrally assemble things we send there, then send them back, and that doesn't exactly equal 'trade' in my book...Mexicans are too broke to buy much of anything from the U.S.). We have a huge defecit with that dump. Hull is a whacko. The military should be on the border.
