Arizona’sU.S. Senators John McCain and Jon Kyl today made the following statement regarding President Obama’s visit to El Paso, Texas:

“President Obama speaks about our broken immigration system; but what about our broken borders? During the President’s first visit to our nation’s southern border, we hope he will finally see first-hand the continued security challenges facing all of those who live along our southwest border. We hear from our constituents on a daily basis, and, while some progress has been made in some areas, they do not believe the border is secure. In fact, a recent GAO report confirmed that the Border Patrol has operational control of only 44 percent of the southwest border.
