Democrats in Arizona’s 7th District expect several issues to take precedence

YUMA, ARIZ (KYMA, KECY) – U.S. Congressman Raul Grijalva from Arizona, who represents parts of Yuma County, said he expects immigration and foreign policy to be the two main topics of his speech today. says.

Grijalva believes House Republicans have failed to work with Democrats to propose comprehensive immigration reform and that more needs to be done.

House members also want Biden to address concerns about fentanyl and opioid trafficking at the southern border.

Grijalva has been a strong supporter of Biden’s foreign policy agenda and has criticized the Republican Party’s unwillingness to provide solutions to strengthen America diplomatically.

“That’s an excuse, an excuse not to talk about the truth, an excuse not to talk about the fact that we need to continue to support the Ukrainian people in a military and humanitarian sense.”

The State of the Union Address is scheduled for 7:00 PM MT and 6:00 PM PT.
