On Monday, a handful of Arizona’s leaders weighed-in on the Trump administration’s zero-tolerance policies:
The Obama Admin’s lack of enforcement of our immigration laws is responsible for this crisis. The DOJ’s zero-tolerance policy returns to the rule of law & ensures families are no longer lured to our borders with false promises. Elections matter. #NoAmnesty https://t.co/qqg6OTFdD0

Keeping our promises should not be rocket science. The American people entrusted us with border security, and we cannot – under any circumstances – fail with our commitments. https://t.co/eK7gJpuhPD #AZ05

Ripping children from their parents at the border is not a partisan issue. It’s a battle for the very heart and soul of our nation. Trump must stop this egregious assault on asylum seekers and start reuniting families. #FamiliesBelongTogether https://t.co/B9wf5JEUQY

The administration’s current family separation policy is an affront to the decency of the American people, and contrary to principles and values upon which our nation was founded. The administration has the power to rescind this policy. It should do so now.
