Ken Salazar: “It honors our important responsibilities to the 566 tribes and Alaskan natives of the United States of America.”

We are incredibly thankful that Chairman Grijalva is championing this issue.

From day one, there should have been a great sense of urgency in addressing the crisis of a broken border and the migration crisis that we are seeing.

We need someone in the White House to oversee the border, migration, Mexico, and the Americas. No one is in charge now. We need a border and migration czar.

I think the partnership that we can build between the leaders of both countries targeting the root causes of migration, and working together on issues of border security are all great opportunities in front of us.
