U.S. REP. RON BARBER STATEMENT ON PRESIDENT’S IMMIGRATION ANNOUNCEMENT

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Ron Barber today issued the following statement on the President’s announcement on immigration:

"Our immigration system is broken and it's Congress's job to fix it.   

I've said from day one that Congress needs to act, and the President should not go it alone. I am disappointed that Congress has brought us to this point and I call on leaders in the House to end the gridlock and bring the bipartisan McCain Flake Immigration bill to the floor. Arizona deserves a real solution that promotes our economy and ensures the safety of our citizens."
